Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 cup cooked bacon crumbled, about 6 slices
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 12 oz shredded cheddar cheese divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a little butter.
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with the garlic and onion powder over medium-high heat, breaking it up as it cooks, about 5–7 minutes. Drain the extra grease.
- Spread the beef in the baking dish and sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the top.
- Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper and 8 oz of the cheese. Pour it over the beef and bacon.
- Top with the remaining 4 oz of cheddar.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the center is set and reaches 160°F (71°C) on a food thermometer.
- Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before cutting so the slices hold together.
