Easy Keto Ground Beef Casserole

I saw this recipe while on vacation...eating really good, not low carb food. I knew the moment I got home I HAD to get back on the low carb train because inviting carbs into my life again is a failure I am not interested in. So, tonight, I stopped and got the ingredients for this.

It's an interesting combination of things. I wasn't sure what to expect and, frankly, it was good. It's not fancy...it's protein and filling. I'd make this again.

I only made one modification, I added about tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce.
