Keto Tex-Mex Ground Beef Casserole

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly coat an 11x7-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

2. 2

   Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in 1 ½ teaspoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper until evenly mixed. Cook until fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

3. 3

   Whisk the eggs and cream together in a bowl; pour into the beef mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking dish; press down evenly.

4. 4

   Wipe the skillet clean; add olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add the onion; cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon each of chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder; season with salt and black pepper. Stir in the tomato paste; cook, stirring often, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cauliflower rice; continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in 1 cup Cheddar cheese; transfer over the beef mixture, smoothing with a spatula to level the top.

5. 5

   Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes.

6. 6

   Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup Cheddar over the top; continue baking until the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes more.

7. 7

   Remove from the oven; cool for about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
