warm and comforting like this Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole can whip together pretty quickly, and even be something that the whole family can be please with. Feel free to top it off with your favorite hamburger toppings (keto-friendly of course).
In addition to being a quick and easy Keto dinner, this Cheeseburger Casserole reheats really well too, making it a great candidate for leftovers and even meal prep. Just make a big dish like this recipe all at once and then separate your leftovers into single-serve containers for quick and easy reheating later.
We highly recommend using Grass-Fed Beef if you can find it, but if you can’t or if you prefer to keep the costs down, regular 85/15 Ground Beef makes for a good substitution. The Grass-Fed Beef tends to be naturally leaner, so you probably wouldn’t want to use something fatty like the cheaper 70/30 ground beef that you often find in bulk.
