Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds ground beef: Provides the meaty base of the dish.
  • 2 cloves garlic minced: Adds depth of flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder: Enhances the savory profile.
  • 1 pound cooked bacon cut into pieces: Adds a smoky, salty crunch.
  • 8 eggs: Binds the ingredients together and adds creaminess.
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream: Adds richness and a custard-like texture.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt: Seasons the dish.
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper: Adds mild heat and depth.
  • 1 12-ounce package shredded cheddar cheese, divided: Melts into the casserole, adding a gooey, cheesy layer.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when the casserole is assembled.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the ground beef, minced garlic, and onion powder until the beef is browned and crumbly, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  • Spread the cooked beef evenly in a 9x13-inch casserole pan. Stir in the cooked bacon pieces, distributing them evenly over the beef.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Stir in 8 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the beef and bacon in the casserole pan, spreading evenly. Sprinkle the remaining 4 ounces of cheddar cheese over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set.
  • Allow the casserole to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy as is or with a side salad.

Notes

  • Vegetarian Option: Substitute ground beef with plant-based meat and use veggie bacon.
  • Add chopped vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach for added nutrition.
  • Experiment with different cheeses like Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or pepper jack.
  • Add hot sauce or chopped jalapeños for a spicy twist.
