Im sorry followers Ive been slacking. But I promise there are new goodies coming! I was looking for a new dinner idea and came up with this recipe with some inspiration from some post I came across on Pinterest.
Low Carb Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole
Servings: 8
Total cooking time: Aprox. 35 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 Pounds Ground Beef
- 2 Large Garlic Cloves
- 1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1 Package Pre-cooked Bacon Chopped
- 2 Cups Egg Substitute (Equivalent Of 8 Eggs)
- 1 (6 ounce) Can Tomato Paste
- 1 Tablespoon Yellow Mustard
- 1 Cup Heavy Cream
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 Teaspoon Ground Pepper
- 16 Ounces Grated Cheddar Cheese, Divided
Special Ingredient Note:
When it comes to shredded cheeses I prefer to buy a block of cheese and grate/shred it myself. Yes those pre-cut bags may be time savers but they also come with extra preservatives to make them last longer and part of this new life for me is about putting better things in my body. Also if you compare the price per volume you'll be pleasantly surprised to learn its actually cheaper to buy the cheese as a block.
Directions:
- Brown ground beef with garlic and onion powder.
- Drain excess grease.
- Stir bacon pieces into cooked beef.
- Spread beef on bottom of 9x13-inch casserole pan.
- In medium bowl, whisk together egg substitute, tomato paste, mustard, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Stir 8 ounces grated cheese into egg mixture.
- Pour egg mixture over beef and bacon.
- Top with remaining 8 ounces of grated cheese.
- Bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before cutting/serving.
