Keto Tex-Mex Ground Beef Taco Casserole Recipe Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper until spices are distributed evenly. Cook until fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes, and remove from heat.
- Whisk together eggs and cream in a bowl; add to the meat mixture. Spray an 11x7-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish and pat down evenly.
- Wipe the skillet clean, add olive oil, and heat over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Add remaining 1 teaspoon each chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in tomato paste and cook, stirring often, for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add cauliflower rice and continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in 1 cup Cheddar cheese, and spread on top of meat in the baking dish, smoothing with a spatula to flatten the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar over the top and bake until the cheese has melted about 5 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
