Fall has officially set in here in the Carolinas. There’s a special crispness in the air, I wish we could bottle this up and keep it year round! As the leaves fall and the days grow shorter – my waist seems to thicken… Anybody with me on this one? I’m on the hunt for low-carb yet tasty food these days. Let me tell you, I have found one recipe that will be a staple on my monthly menu! Low Carb Cheeseburger Casserole
This dish is super simple to make and personifies comfort food – without the guilt! Paired with some buttery veggies or a salad – Perfection! My kids all gobble this up and never realize they are eating a pretty balanced meal. On a side note – you don’t want to load this down with mashed potatoes or mac-n-cheese – that will kind of nullify the “low carb” thing ya’ got going!
