Ingredients:

• Sugar-free ketchup

• Large eggs
• Onion
• Heavy whipping cream
• Oregano

• Dill pickle slices
• Worcestershire sauce

Ingredient Notes

• Ground Beef: Use 80/20 for flavor or swap for lean beef or ground turkey.
• Bacon: Adds smoky richness — cook it crisp before adding to the casserole.
• Pasta: Elbow macaroni or rotini works best, holding the cheesy sauce perfectly.
• Cheddar Cheese: Go for sharp cheddar for that classic cheeseburger bite.
• Pickles (optional): Chopped dill pickles or relish give a signature tang.

Storage & Reheating

Let the casserole cool completely before covering. It keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, or freeze portions for up to 2 months. To reheat, cover loosely with foil and bake at 350°F until warmed through.

Serving Suggestions

Serve it just like a burger combo — with a side salad, fries, or roasted veggies. For a fun twist, top each serving with a few crispy onions or a squirt of ketchup and mustard.
