Here is another savory keto recipe that I hope you all will enjoy! I am 7 days into my latest keto stint and I feel amazing! I recently returned from a vacation in Greece. I had such a great time! I spent a lot of the trip binging on pasta, bread with olive oil, and local wine. Heck yeah and YUM!

BUT….when I returned from my vacation I felt extremely sluggish and the lower pit of my stomach had a constant ache. I knew this was directly tied to all of the food binges I had been enjoying.

I decided to give my body a break and focus on keto friendly meals. Last week I made Keto Shrimp Alfredo Zucchini Noodles. These were so yum and the perfect meal to send me into ketosis.

Burgers are one of my favorite keto meals because they are so easily accessible. Most restaurants offer lettuce wrapped burgers. In fact, when I am strapped for time, I will often hit up the drive-through at Freddies and order a lettuce wrapped bacon cheeseburger. It is truly a lifesaver for me with keto.

I like to consider myself a grill master. I LOVE to grill! One of the mandatory ingredients is Worcestershire sauce. I also love to use a good burger seasoning.

McCormick’s Grill Mates Burger Seasoning and Weber Burger Seasoning are my favorites. These ingredients will add so much flavor! The casserole will taste a lot more like a burger.

This dish is perfect for meal prep and leftovers. That is the main reason why I love casseroles. You throw a bunch of ingredients in a pan, bake, and then chill.

Here is the Rectangular Bake Dish, 8″ x 11″  used in this recipe.

I use Butcher Box ground beef in this recipe because it is 100% grass-fed beef.  Grass-fed beef is much leaner and has less total fat. It also has more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which is linked to reductions in heart disease and cancer. 

I love the convenience of using Butcher Box’s subscription service. They don’t just provide ground beef. They also provide heritage breed pork, uncured nitrate-free bacon, free-range organic chicken, and 100% grass-fed steak!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Butcher Box ground beef
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 2 oz cream cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 1-2 tablespoons mustard I used 1 tablespoon
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
  • 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese divided
  • 1 teaspoon Burger Seasoning I like Weber Burger Seasoning or McCormick's Grill Mates Burger Seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 slices Butcher Box bacon cooked and crumbled, add more if you like!
  • 1 kosher pickle, cut into pieces Add more pickles if you are a pickle lover!

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Place the Butcher Box ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onions, burger seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste.. Using a spatula, break the ground beef into chunks. 

  3. Add the worcestershire sauce and cream cheese. Cook until the ground beef is no longer pink and the cream cheese has melted.

  4. Remove the skillet from heat.

  5. In a medium bowl, combine the eggs,  1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup shredded white cheddar cheese, heavy cream, and mustard.

  6. Spray an 8 x 11 or  9x9 baking dish (I used 8 x11) with oil or cooking spray. Pour the ground beef mixture into the dish. Sprinkle the Butcher Box bacon and sliced pickles throughout.

  7. Drizzle the liquid mixture on top.

  8. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheddar and 1/2 cup shredded white cheddar cheese on top.

  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese begins to bubble. Mine was ready around 17.

  10. Cool before serving.

Recipe Notes

Feel free to add your favorite keto friendly burger toppings. Mushrooms and guac will work well.

If you do not use Butcher Box beef and your beef produces excess oil, drain the oil prior to baking.

      thanks so much.. love love loved it.

    • Seriously the best keto recipe I have tried so far! I didn’t have heavy whipping cream so I used sour cream instead and it was still so beyond delicious! My husband even loved it and he’s not doing the keto thing! It’s so unbelievably easy too!!

    • Thank you for coming up with this recipe! It was so much better than it looked!! I did have to alter because I was missing a few items. I didn’t have kosher pickles and oddly enough I didn’t have mustard or onions either but the overall core of the recipe was spot on and inspired other recipes!! Thanks again!

    • My whole family loves this! I do leave out the pickles as we do not love them in food. I absolutely love it when they love the food that I need to be eating so that I am not having to prepare two different meals. The first time I made it, I made it all at one time and took it to my parent’s house for dinner. They really enjoyed it too. The second time I made it, I cooked the meat mixture the night before and then put in the fridge as the next day a child had basketball and I knew I would not have a lot of time after work to get dinner finished. This worked beautifully as well. Thank you so much!!

  2. This casserole sounds amazing, my kids would definitely love it if I served this up for dinner!

  11. Omg. This is SO GOOD. I only had a cheddar gruyere mix cheese from Trader Joe’s on hand for the white cheese And forgot bacon and pickles but still turned out. I will be repeating this one many times!

  12. Just made it and ate it. The whole family loved it. I used one large clove of garlic instead of two, used the colby jack cheese I had on hand and left out the pickles. Not a pickle fan…

    It turned out great. This one is going in the recipe book.

  14. This is amazing! I did not have any hamburger seasoning so I just used salt and pepper. I also did not put pickles in mine. It was still amazing! Thanks for sharing. I will be making this again and again. And sharing it!

  17. I love this recipe and it is a keeper, however, the calories and counts do not come out right no matter what I use. The best I have been able to do is 462 calories per serving. I have attempted to put this through multiple calorie calculators as well as writing down and dividing the information and at six servings this comes out at best to be 462 calories per serving. With the ingrediant I typically use it is 497 per serving for six:
    Nutrition Facts
    Servings: 6
    Amount per serving
    Calories 497
    % Daily Value*
    Total Fat 35.7g 46%
    Saturated Fat 18.5g 93%
    Cholesterol 205mg 68%

    Total Carbohydrate 3.9g 1%
    Dietary Fiber 0.4g 2%
    Total Sugars 1.4g

    Vitamin D 21mcg 103%
    Calcium 332mg 26%
    Iron 3mg 16%
    Potassium 425mg 9%

    Here are two nutrition calculators:
    https://www.verywellfit.com/recipe-nutrition-analyzer-4157076
    https://happyforks.com/analyzer/result
    People can use to enter the ingredients themselves and calculate it. You can even do it by hand and the results are the same. Unless the organic beef you are using is drastically less calories than the organic beef at Wal-Mart or Krogers supermarkets these calculations never change. The only way to get close to the 392 per serving is to actually up the servings to 8. If you could provide a actual nutrition list it would greatly help in making sure the calculations are correct as two cups of cheese and 1lb of meat alone per serving for six is over 350 calories and that doesn’t include the heavy whipping cream, bacon or eggs.
    I love the recipe but for people going off of the calculations given if they are trying to keep a macro count this will fail them unless they do the work themselves to calculate it out.

    • Hi there. Thanks for your feedback! I document on my disclaimer page (https://www.staysnatched.com/disclaimer/) that I use MyFitnessPal for calcs, and that these are my calcs. No one should EVER use my calculation as their own. You should always calculate your own macros in accordance to the brands that you use. If you send me an email at StaySnatched.com I would happy to send you a screenshot from MyFitnessPal, but again, this probably won’t be helpful because you should calculate your own. I post it on my recipes as a ballpark. You are citing a difference of 70 calories, which is completely reasonable and appears materially accurate.

        • Thank you so much for understanding! 🙂 I’m glad you love the recipes. Let me know if you ever have ideas on what I should try to put together next!

  18. Awesome recipe and real good. I did some things different.
    1: once I cooked the meat I mixed my bacon right away.
    2: I Waited for it to cool a bit and actually mixed the liquid in to it because I actually wanted to make a burger with it
    3: I actually got lettuce to replace the bun and put a tad bit of mayo on them and included fresh onion and tomato (similar to In and Outs protein style burger.

    As with any recipe you should always make it your own

    • Hi! Your welcome. I don’t weigh my servings. You should be able to plug the portion sizes of all of the ingredients into an online converter to determine this, you could also use a food scale.

  24. Your recipe does not show you draining the grease from the beef. Without draining, my casserole was very oily and did not sit well in my stomach. The flavor was wonderful but next time I will thoroughly drain the beef before adding the other ingredients.

    Reply

    • Hi there. The video didn’t show me draining the beef, because I didn’t. I use Butcher Box grass-fed beef, as noted and recommended in the recipe, which does not produce excess oil. While cooking, it is important to use your judgment while following a recipe and make changes that will suit you best. I am sorry this happened to you, and happy you have found an alternative method.

  25. Absolutely love this recipe i did make a couple changes because of my tastes i add my pickles after its cooked i cant stand hot pickles and i also added jalapeños and mushrooms to it and only used cheddar since its what i have

    Reply

    • Jalapenos and mushrooms sound so good! I recently made it with smoked cheddar and loved it! I should include these as recipe tips!

  28. I am trying to do keto this sounds yummy reminds me of bisquick cheeseburger pie. I know the eggs are for binding but does it taste eggy? I’m not an egg fan and don’t want to make it if I won’t like it.

    Reply


  29. Trying to make this a complete meal with no sides, so I added 1 diced zucchini, 1 cup green beans (1″ pieces) and 1 dozen sliced brown mushrooms. I sautéed this mix and added to the meat before it went in the casserole dish. I also added about 1/2 cup of chopped green onions to the cheese topping.
    Absolutely Fantastic, this one is a keeper.
    Thanks Brandi

  31. Hi, I screwed up and didn’t read all the instructions (going to blame it on post holiday fatigue – I know better.). I added all the liquid to the meat, stirred and poured it all into the casserole. It is currently baking. Any idea how much this error will alter the finished product? I will provide feed back after we eat it. So bummed, was so looking forward to trying this!!

    • Did the eggs scramble when you added it the meat? I’ve never done this, so I’m not sure how this will turn out.

  32. I have to triple this recipe every time I make it! My kids will eat the whole pan lol!
    It’s a fan-favorite, and we have even made lettuce wraps with it too.

  33. This recipe is the BOMB! I’ve only done Keto for 5 weeks now and was looking for a new recipe and so glad I came across this one! Even my husband (who is a meat and potatoes man) said he liked it! I plated mine with a side of lettuce, ranch dressing and black olives. My supper was delightful! I tweaked the recipe with mushrooms, 4 strips of crumbled, crispy baked bacon, and small dollops of sour cream, used a cup of cheddar and a cup of mozzarella and added it to the egg. Then, being from WI….I scattered some cheese curds over the top! Before I finished my serving I put a teaspoon of mild Pico de Gallo on it and it was delish! This recipe has a lot of possibilities you can play around with. I’m looking forward to finding out! Thank you.

  34. I just made this and yummy!

    I did not use bacon (as it is frozen in my freezer). I added diced pickles and jalapeños to the cooking beef. I then added hot sauce to the egg mix to add more spice.

    Turned out great!

    I will be putting a portion of it in a individual oven safe dish and cracking an egg on it in the morning for breakfast. Then for dinner heating a portion and tossing it in a salad with a homemade dressing.

    Thanks for the great recipe

  37. I’m new to Keto. I’ve heard so much about it, I wanted to try. I’ve had success in the past with HcG, and Atkins, but keeping the weight off has always been my issue. This was my first dish with the Keto diet, and it was delicious. I’ve purchase a few Keto cookbooks, and am excited about seeing my progress. If I can eat like this, there is no doubt in my mind, that I can lose the 10-15 lbs that I’d like to lose. The challenge for me, iwill be keeping the weight off.
