For a low-carb version, add green onions or \u00bd teaspoon onion powder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>OLIVE OIL:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Helps when cooking ingredients. For a deeper flavor, try avocado oil, butter, or ghee.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>HEAVY CREAM:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Makes the sauce stronger. Coconut cream helps if you need a vegan option without increasing carbs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>BELL PEPPER:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>You may use your favorite combo of bell peppers from yellow, green, or red, but green provides a more bitter flavor. If you want lower carbs additionally, replace some peppers with sliced zucchini or greens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>MOZZARELLA CHEESE:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Helps to provide a melt and stretch.\u00a0 You can use provolone or a keto mozzarella as a replacement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>\u00a0TOMATO PASTE:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Provides depth, keeping carb content low. Unsweetened tomato paste can be used as a replacement if necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>CREAM CHEESE:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>It provides the creamy foundation.\u00a0 For a more velvety feel, swap it with the mascarpone cheese.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>GROUND BEEF:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>For an ideal flavor and fat balance, use 80\/20.\u00a0 If you want lighter meat, use 90\/10, but add a little more fat, such as butter or oil, to keep the recipe nutritious.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Free Keto Meal Plan:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/kizios.com\/keto-diet-plan-for-beginners-step-by-step-guide\/\">STEP-BY-STEP KETO DIET PLAN FOR BEGINNERS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"612aec68119cedffa0a819900e9968d9\" data-index=\"5\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"612aec68119cedffa0a819900e9968d9\" data-index=\"2\"><\/div>\n<h3>INSTRUCTIONS:<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Heat oil in a large pan.<\/li>\n<li>Include bell peppers and onion.<\/li>\n<li>Cook till they become softer.<\/li>\n<li>Include garlic and mix it for a while till it gives a fresh flavor.<\/li>\n<li>Put ground beef and heat it till it changes color.<\/li>\n<li>If necessary, take off any extra fat.<\/li>\n<li>Mix paprika, salt, Italian seasoning, tomato paste, and pepper properly in the dish.<\/li>\n<li>Lower the flame and include the cream cheese.<\/li>\n<li>Leave it to melt into the batter.<\/li>\n<li>Put in rich cream and mix till the sauce thickens slightly.<\/li>\n<li>Place the mixture into a lined baking pan.<\/li>\n<li>Spread the mozzarella and cheddar equally on the top.<\/li>\n<li>Warm the empty oven to 375\u00b0F.<\/li>\n<li>Cook the casserole in that oven(already heated) for up to 20 minutes or till it gets warm and bubbly.<\/li>\n<li>Before serving, leave it for 5 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>TIPS:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Swap beef with ground turkey for a leaner version.<\/li>\n<li>At the end, broil the recipe for two minutes for extra crispness.<\/li>\n<li>If you don\u2019t skip the remaining time, it will help to set the casserole.<\/li>\n<li>To add a little heat, include a chopped jalapeno.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>STORAGE INFORMATION:<\/h3>\n<h4>FREEZING:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Store the servings in freezer-friendly vessels.
