Keto Ground Beef Zoodle Casserole

Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchini, spiralized (about 1 pound/450g)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound (450g) lean ground beef
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 cup (100g) shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking dish.

  4. Place the spiralized zucchini into the baking dish and pour the beef mixture over the top. Toss to combine.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly in the dish and top with shredded cheddar cheese.

  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly casserole!
