Keto Taco Casserole is a family favorite. Make this meaty, cheesy, casserole any time you're in the mood for an easy to make, filling, and delicious meal.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1½-quart baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, for 5-6 minutes or until browned. Add chilies (if using), broth (or water), and taco seasoning and cook, allowing liquid to reduce and thicken. Remove from heat.
Add cream cheese, stirring until creamy and well blended. Allow to cool slightly.
To assemble, spread 2T taco sauce on the bottom of the casserole dish, then top with ½ of the taco meat mixture. Sprinkle on ¾ cup of cheese, then place one of the low carb tortillas on top.
Repeat for the second layer. Top tortilla layer with remaining taco sauce and remaining cheese. Bake for 25 minutes.
When ready to serve, garnish with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and sour cream, if desired.
Notes
Adjust the spiciness of the casserole by adding or removing some of the chilies.
Using beef bone broth rather than water adds extra flavor and protein to the dish.
To brown the top, place the casserole under the broiler for a few minutes at the end of the cook time.
Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to six months.
