This Keto Cheeseburger Casserole has all the flavors of a juicy burger without the carbs! Your whole family will love this low carb cheeseburger casserole and you’ll love how simple it is to make!
Okay, friends, I have a good one for you today!
You know how sometimes you just really need a big, fat, juicy bacon cheeseburger? Happens to me daily, if we’re being honest.
I’m back on the low carb bandwagon again and one of those burger cravings hit. Of course, my bacon cheeseburger salad is always nice, but I’m getting a little sick of salad and wanted something filling and loaded with protein.
Enter this keto cheeseburger casserole. Oh, did I mention the bacon? Because obviously we added bacon.
This is now one of my new favorite low carb ground beef recipes. So filling, pretty simple to throw together, and a definite crowd pleaser.
This hamburger casserole recipe has been such a hit that I created this keto taco casserole too. Always love a Mexican spin on food!
I’ve also made a buffalo chicken casserole based off of this recipe! It’s just a winning combo.
Low Carb Cheeseburger Casserole Ingredients:

Beef – We’re using lean beef, but you can buy a fattier beef and just drain the excess grease.
Bacon – Dice it and fry it up.
Sauce – This low carb bacon cheeseburger casserole gets a creamy sauce made from cream cheese, reduced or no sugar added ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and seasoned salt.
Egg – Seems weird in a cheeseburger casserole, but the egg holds everything together and adds extra protein and helps keep you full. This low carb casserole could also be considered a quiche, if you want to get technical.
Cheese – We sprinkle plenty of shredded cheddar over the top.
What Readers are Saying!
“This is one of the best low carb recipes I have ever found. Thank you!!! My husband and I both crave it all the time. I found it a month ago and I’ve already made it like 5 times. Crazy- I know. We just love it that much.” – Whitney
Does this keto hamburger casserole taste like eggs?
I’ve actually had a lot of people ask if this tasted egg-y and I really don’t think it does at all. There are just 4 eggs in the whole casserole, so that’s less than one egg per serving.
The eggs really just serve to hold everything together.
Serving Suggestions:
Give this a try with some diced red onion and pickles on top! Just note that any additional toppings you add will impact the carb count of this recipe.
This goes great with a side of cauliflower rice or a nice green salad topped with your favorite dressing. We like this homemade keto ranch dressing.
Is ketchup keto friendly?
Most ketchup is loaded with sugar, so you’ll want to be sure to read the labels. We use Heinz No Sugar Added Ketchup. It’s low in carbs and uses sucralose as the sweetener.
My kids actually prefer it to regular ketchup!

I am lactose intolerant. Is there something that I could substitute for the cream cheese/heavy cream and do you think it would work if egg whites are used.
Susan says
You can get lactose free whipping cream
Gwen says
Should the egg mixture be mixed into the other ingredients?
Karly says
It just gets poured over the top. It’ll drip down in the cracks. ๐
