Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/2 cup sliced pickles
- 1/4 cup unsweetened ketchup or sugar-free ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: sliced tomatoes, chopped lettuce, additional cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with a little oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a bowl, combine the cooked beef with diced onions, ketchup, and mustard. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
- Spread the beef mixture evenly in your prepared baking dish. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
- Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a golden top, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Notes
- Use high-quality cheese for the best flavor and melting consistency.
- Adjust seasonings to taste — add smoked paprika or hot sauce for extra flavor.
- For a crispy top, broil the casserole for 2-3 minutes before serving.
