Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Pour this mixture over the meat and bacon in the casserole dish.
Baking
  1. Top everything off with the remaining shredded cheese.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
  3. Once done, let the casserole rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

This casserole can be served straight from the baking dish for a casual meal. Pair it with a side salad or top with fresh avocado, sliced tomatoes, or low-carb condiments.
