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!

Melissa Derby says
I’m looking for a lower protein version. Could I use something else instead of eggs?
Karly says
This is basically a crustless quiche and the eggs are what holds it all together. I’m not sure there is anything else that would work here.
Linda Miller says
Very good recipe my whole family liked it. Will definitely be making this one again. Thank you for sharing it.
Elisabeth Hall says
On the nutrition info, is that the amount per serving or for the entire pan and then divide by 6 to find the individual serving info?
Karly says
The nutrition info is per serving.
Jacqui says
So, is the serving size 1 of the 6 pieces? ย
Karly says
That’s correct.
Timothy Yaeger says
Hi there if u doubled would it be 8 eggs then? Thanks
Karly says
Yep! You could probably even do 6, if you’re concerned that it will be too much egg.
Laurel says
I just made this for dinner tonight and it was delicious! I have Type 2 diabetes so I seriously watch my carb intake and am always looking for low carb recipes and this one is a definite keeper! We loved it. Im going to be making the Sausage Egg Roll in a bowl as well. Thanks so much for sharing!
Emily Smith says
Could I substitute my choice of milk instead of heavy cream?
Karly says
I haven’t tried it, but it should work fine, though it will change the carb content.
Mary says
I’ve made this a couple of times for my family of 11. I doubled it and most of my kids ate it and requested it for another time. Some even had seconds. It’s delicious. Thanks for the great recipe.
Sam says
Looks amazing…What brand of seasoned salt did you use?
Karly says
I use Lawry’s. ๐
Risa Lundquist says

My wife just started her keto diet so I wanted to try this out. There will be 4 of us so I’m looking at doubling using 9×13 pan…has anyone discovered a good time frame for complete cooking? Hate the trial by error in the first attempt. Thanks.
