Ingredients
  

  • 1 lp ground beef
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
  • 2 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning (sugar-free)
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: sour cream, avocado, salsa, jalapeños, green onions

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowls
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Measuring Cups & Spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a pie dish or oven proof skillet.
  2. Cook the Beef: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat; fry chopped onions and garlic until it smells. Stir in the ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Drain excess grease.
  3. Season the Meat: Add taco seasoning and a splash of water. Let simmer for 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Layer the Pie Dish: Transfer the seasoned beef to the prepared pie dish and spread out to cover the bottom.
  5. Make the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, in another pot, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt and pepper. Pour over the beef layer.
  6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
  7. Bake: Bake, uncovered, until the center is set and top is golden and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to sit for 5 minutes before cutting. Top with additional toppings if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • This can be made with ground turkey or ground chicken in place of the beef.
  • Spice it up with jalapeños or hot sauce in the meat.
  • For extra fiber, include chopped spinach or zucchini in the meat mixture.
  • Keep any leftovers in an air tight container to maintain freshness for up to three days.
  • Refrigerate, then reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
