Recipe: Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole

Ingredients:

For the Casserole:

1 pound ground beef

6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup diced dill pickles
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sugar-free ketchup
2 tablespoons mustard

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

For Topping (Optional):

Sliced tomatoes
Shredded lettuce
Additional diced pickles

Instructions:

Preparing the Casserole:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it’s browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked ground beef, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, diced pickles, and diced red onion.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, sugar-free ketchup, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Pour the mayo-sour cream mixture over the beef and cheese mixture. Mix everything together until it’s well combined.

Baking the Casserole:

Transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch (23×33 cm) baking dish. Spread it out evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is hot and bubbly, and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

Serving:

Once the casserole is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.

Topping (Optional):

If desired, top the casserole with sliced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and additional diced pickles just before serving to mimic the classic cheeseburger toppings.
