Think a low-carb lifestyle means you have to give up casseroles? Think again! This pie is so yummy I have to make more than one at a time. This is a basic recipe that I've modified (once again to make it a bit more basic), but I've started adding a chopped green chili per pie and serve with salsa verde or a low carb red salsa.
1 lb. ground beef
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (divided)
2 eggs
1/2 cup mayo
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown ground beef and drain. Add to large mixing bowl and combine with onion powder, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup of cheese. Place in the bottom of a greased pie plate. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top of the meat mixture. In a bowl, combine eggs, mayo, and heavy whipping cream and whisk until well blended. Pour over the top of the meat mixture. Cook for 30-35 minutes. Makes 6 servings.

Since my family began the LCHF lifestyle, I've tried a lot of recipes. Unfortunately, they are scattered all over the place - Pinterest, Facebook, email, screenshots, bookmarked, etc. It's beyond frustrating trying to remember where each recipe is located. This is a resource to compile our favorite recipes, snacks, and tips. I didn't create any of these recipes, but I might have tweaked them. I've also done my best to include accurate nutritional information for each recipe. Happy eating!
