I love making casseroles for my family. They’re easy, filling and great for a crowd. This one was delicious, healthy and tastes just like a cheeseburger!
This is a really easy casserole to make that is keto approved and low carb. Its also diabetic friendly. Great if you are following a ketogenic lifestyle.
The kids will love this because it really tastes like a cheeseburger! I promise, you won’t even miss the bun. Feel free to add anything you like to this that you would normally add to your cheeseburgers, like pickles, mustard, mozza cheese etc.
My kids loved this and actually asked if they can eat it again the next day! Definitely a winner!

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
What size of pan do I use.
9X11
This sounds more like meatloaf.
Call it what you want! But the meat is mixed in with ingredients and not formed into a loaf first, so it it a casserole.
I make something like this, but layer cooked pasta noodles of any kind as well and finish it off with cheese. Mix the ground beef, onions, mushrooms with the Pasta sauce and make sure meat is cooked and then layer starting with pasta on the bottom. Almost like lasagne and I often put a layer of spinach in also.
But then it is not low carb or keto.
Can you substitute the heavy cream with anything else?
Sour cream
Plain yogurt
Delicious! My family loved it. Thank you!
You’re welcome 🙂
Will definitely be trying this!
What size can of tomato paste?
what else would you serve with this?
I’m going to make fresh green beans with it.
I’m going to try it with Spaghetti Squash
When I have made it for my son in the past, I have added a cup of mixed veggies into the mix so it was an all-in-one casserole.

I can’t wait to make this tonight!!! I’m serving with fresh green beans ☺
Thanks for this great recipe. Its hard finding great keto recipes for variety
This recipe is delicious to add some veggies to it, I incorporated steamed cauliflower! it was very good!
Very good, love the texture. Having just made this, I’m going to tweak the recipe just a bit next time. This casserole needs some zing, so I’ll use a little more seasoning, more cheese and keto ketchup in the sauce mixture rather than tomato paste. I’ll also add the cheese/bacon topping 1/2 way thru baking rather than at the beginning. I just served this up on shredded lettuce, topped with fresh tomatoes, onions(for the non-ketoists), avocados along with standard burger condiments. Thumbs up.
Oh, and spray casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Makes cleaning up a lot easier.
Thank you for the great recipe. Do you by chance have the macros for this?
Can you use anything besides the tomato paste or just not use any at all and still get just about the same results?

Thanks 🙂
How do you weigh out the serving size? How much is a serving? It looks good and I want to try, just want to make sure how much I can have. Thank you
It says 61 grams of carbs per serving. That’s gotta be wrong
What size dish ?
What else can you use besides tomato paste
The whole family loved it… I didn’t have tomato paste so I cooked down a no sugar Tomato sauce and used that… delish just as written!!
Awesome idea to cook down the no sugar tomato sauce!
I don’t see the nutrition facts listed. How many carbs per serving?
Thanks! ☺

I would like to cut in half. Do i just cut hamburger and eggs down?
I made this and it was very good. On the list to make again. Thank you.
Made this last night exactly like the recipe says and both my husband and I liked it very much! Thanks for posting 😉
OMGosh! This was delicious! I didn’t have tomato paste so I used drained fire-roasted diced tomatoes, so good! Thank you for sharing!
WOULD I USE A WHITE SAUCE INSTEAD OF THE TOMATO PASTE, MY FAMILY DOESN’T LIKE TOMATO SAUCE.
Can you freeze this casserole?
