Low Carb & Gluten Free Sour Cream Beef Bake

You guys, this low carb sour cream beef bake is outta this world amazing!

It’s the kind of casserole that you can eat boat loads of without feeling super guilty because it’s low carb. It’s full of amazing flavor, it’s easy to make and the ingredients list is minimal. As a result, I want to make it all the time. It’s my new favorite low carb casserole recipe!


Ingredients:


  • 2oz cauliflower rice
  • 1.5lb lean ground beef
  • 15oz can of tomato sauce (I make sure no sugar is added)
  • 1/2 C sour cream (I use full fat)
  • 1 1/4 C cottage cheese (I use full fat)
  • 2 C shredded cheddar cheese (I shred my own)
  • 1/2 C sliced green onions
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper


Instructions:


  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Place the cauliflower rice in a 2.5 quart baking dish. Microwave 4-5 minutes or until tender but not mushy. After cooking, set aside (leave in the casserole dish). **See notes below or in post for removing excess water from the cauliflower rice.
  3. In a large skillet or pot, cook the ground beef over medium high heat until browned, 7-10 minutes. Drain and stir in the tomato sauce, salt and pepper.
  4. In a mixing bowl, stir together the cottage cheese and sour cream. Mix in the sliced green onions.
  5. Pour the sour cream mixture into the cauliflower rice (that’s in the casserole dish) and mix well.
  6. Pour half of the beef mixture over the cauliflower rice mixture. Spread with the back of a spoon to even. Top with 1 C of the cheddar cheese.
  7. Repeat with the remaining beef mixture and cheese, ending with the cheese.
  8. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.


NOTES:

  • If you prefer browned cheese, after baking broil on high until cheese is bubbly and browned.
  • Serving size is approximate. The casserole makes 8 portions of the casserole – divide the casserole into 8 equal portions.
  • Use cheese cloth to squeeze the water out of the cooked cauliflower rice.
