🥩🧀 Carnivore Cheeseburger Casserole

Yield: 4–6 servings
Prep: 10 minutes
Bake: 30–35 minutes
Diet: Carnivore • Keto • Low-carb

🧾 Ingredients

1½ lb ground beef (80/20 preferred)
1 tsp salt (or to taste)
½ tsp black pepper (optional; omit for strict carnivore)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella or Colby-Jack
2 large eggs
½ cup heavy cream (or more cheese if you prefer)
2 tbsp butter or beef tallow (for greasing)

Optional Add-Ins (Still Carnivore)

4–6 slices cooked bacon, chopped
¼ cup grated parmesan (extra savory punch)

🔥 Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Beef

Preheat oven to 375°F / 190°C
Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat
Season with salt (and pepper if using)
Drain excess grease only if excessive

2️⃣ Mix the Custard

In a bowl, whisk:
- Eggs
- Heavy cream
- ½ cup of the cheese

This keeps the casserole creamy, not dry.

3️⃣ Assemble

Grease a 9×9 baking dish
Spread beef evenly in the dish
Pour egg mixture over beef
Sprinkle remaining cheese evenly on top
Add bacon or parmesan if using

4️⃣ Bake

Bake uncovered 30–35 minutes
Top should be bubbly and lightly browned
Rest 5–10 minutes before slicing

❓ Q & A

Q: Is this strict carnivore?

A: Yes—if you skip pepper and check cheese labels.
Everything is animal-based.

Q: Can I skip the eggs?

A: Yes.

Texture will be looser, more like cheesy beef
Still delicious, just less sliceable

Q: Best cheese combo?

Cheddar = classic burger flavor
Mozzarella = stretch & melt
Parmesan = salty depth

Q: Can I meal prep this?

A: 100%.

Fridge: 4 days
Reheats great in oven or air fryer
Even better on day two

Q: Can I freeze it?
