Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: Chopped pickles and mustard for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×9-inch casserole dish or similar size with cooking spray or oil.
  2. Cook the Ground Beef: In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cook the Bacon: Fry the bacon in a separate skillet until crispy, then crumble it and set aside.
  4. Mix the Egg and Cream: In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and eggs, then season with salt and pepper.
  5. Assemble the Casserole: Layer the cooked beef evenly in the casserole dish. Top with crumbled bacon, pour over the egg and cream mixture, and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is set in the center.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Let the casserole cool slightly before slicing and serving. For added flavor, top each serving with chopped pickles and mustard.

Notes

  • Drain the Beef: After cooking the ground beef, be sure to drain any excess fat to prevent the casserole from becoming greasy.
  • Use Full-Fat Ingredients: For the best flavor and texture, use full-fat cream and cheese for a rich, indulgent dish.
  • Customize the Toppings: You can add sautéed onions or jalapeños for extra cheeseburger-inspired flavors.
  • Make it Spicy: Add a few dashes of hot sauce or chopped chili peppers to the beef mixture for a spicy kick.
