** For sensitive tummies I would omit high fodmap ingredients or anything you’re sensitive to like dairy

  • 1 pound ground beef (I like 85%)
  • 1/2 sweet onion **optional
  • 1 clove garlic **optional
  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese **optional
  • 2 tablespoons sugar free ketchup

AIRFRYER BACON

I wrote a whole post on the details of perfecting your airfryer bacon HERE

Ingredients

  • 1lb bacon
I love this Hormel Bacon, its all natural with no preservatives

Bacon Instructions

  • Heat air fryer to 350°F
  • Arrange the bacon slices, twisting slightly to fit.
  • Cook for 6 minutes, flip.
  • Cook for 4-6 more minutes, check for doneness.

Casserole Instructions

  1. Cook bacon first. Add ground beef to skillet and cook until browned. Drain fat.
  2. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet with the beef and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes if you’re adding them
  3. Add the cream cheese, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and salt to the skillet and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until combined.
  4. Spread the beef mixture into a greased 8×8 baking dish. Top with the cooked bacon.
  5. Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and whisk together with the heavy cream until combined. Stir in the pepper.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the beef and bacon.
  7. Top with the cheddar cheese.
  8. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until set and golden on top. Sprinkle with dill before serving if using 

RECIPE NOTES

GAPS: Use sugar-free bacon

KETO: Consider omitting the ketchup or lessening the amount, depending on your carb tolerance. 

CARNIVORE/ZERO-CARB: Seasonings & sauces are personal preference.  Omit any ingredients that cause gut issues. Be creative and construct to your own recipe!

Happy eating loves!! 🥓 🍔 🧀
