Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cook the Meat: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil or avocado oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until it starts to soften, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
  3. Add Ground Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it is browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
  4. Season the Meat: Stir in the taco seasoning, diced tomatoes (with their juice), and beef broth. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the mixture to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Assemble the Casserole: Transfer the beef mixture to a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly. Spoon dollops of sour cream over the beef mixture, then spread it out gently with a spatula.
  6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the top of the casserole.
  7. Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the casserole is heated through.
  8. Optional Toppings: If using, sprinkle sliced black olives, diced bell pepper, and chopped fresh cilantro on top after baking.
  9. Serve: Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy it as is, or with a side of leafy greens or a simple salad.

Tips:

  • You can substitute the ground beef with ground turkey or chicken if you prefer.
  • To add more vegetables, consider mixing in some chopped spinach or zucchini with the beef mixture before baking.
  • For a spicier kick, add some chopped jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the beef mixture.

Enjoy your Keto Taco Casserole! It’s a flavorful, satisfying dish that fits perfectly into a low-carb lifestyle.
