Low-Carb Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole

Low-Carb Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole
This delicious casserole delivers all the indulgent taste of a bacon cheeseburger—minus the bun. It’s a filling, low-carb dish packed with savory beef, crispy bacon, and melted cheddar. Perfect for keto diets and gluten-free lifestyles, it’s a comforting and satisfying weeknight meal.

Ingredients:

Ground beef – 2 lbs
Garlic, minced – 2 cloves
Onion powder – ½ tsp
Cooked bacon, chopped – 1 lb
Eggs – 8 large
Heavy whipping cream – 1 cup
Salt – ½ tsp
Black pepper – ¼ tsp
Shredded Cheddar cheese – 12 oz (divided)

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Brown the Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned. Break it apart as it cooks. Drain any grease, then add garlic and onion powder. Cook for 1-2 minutes more, then remove from heat.

Step 3: Prep Bacon & Cheese
If the bacon isn’t already cooked, fry it until crispy and chop into bite-sized pieces. Shred the cheddar if using a block.

Step 4: Layer the Dish
Add the cooked beef to your baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the bacon pieces on top. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the meat and bacon. Top with half of the shredded cheese.

Step 5: Bake
Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 6: Serve
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions if you like.

Tips & Variations:

Add Veggies: Try bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrients.
Turn Up the Heat: Mix in jalapeños or red pepper flakes for a spicy version.
Switch Cheeses: Feel free to swap in Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or your favorite blend.
