Keto Cheesy Beef and Spinach Casserole

Keto Recipes > Keto Dinner Recipes

I love creating new casserole dishes. Besides having to chop up your vegetables, this is an easy one pan keto dinner and is very filling!

I made this with a ground beef base with vegetables and seasonings that pair just right and some beef broth to bring all the ingredients together. Of course, I topped it off the best way I know how – with mozzarella cheese and let it bake in the oven until the cheese was just melted!
