Why You'll Love It

Ground beef- Any fat percentage of ground beef will work for this recipe, so no need to run to the grocery store to buy anything special.  Onion- This gives a delicious flavor and hint of sweetness to the casserole that you'll love. Garlic Tomato sauce- This is lower in sugar than traditional ketchup, but gives a lot of the same flavor notes. Mustard- Provides some earthiness while giving that classic mustard flavor that you love on a cheeseburger. Worcestershire sauce- Give a subtle hint of umami. Salt Black pepper Cream cheese- Provides additional fat and creaminess. Cheddar cheese- I prefer to purchase the block of shredded cheese and grate it myself to prevent any hidden carbs from potato starch from sneaking into my diet.
