Bacon Cheeseburger Casserole (KETO/Low Carb)
Who doesn’t love a good casserole. I know I do. They are my comfort food and this Bacon Cheeseburger has everything a good casserole should have, and then some. Bacon, please This casserole all starts with bacon. I used 1/2 lb of bacon and cut the strips into small pieces and then cooked it all in a large skillet. If you leftover bacon you can use it, but I love how the bacon flavor becomes the base of the casserole when you cook it in the same skillet as the meat. The bacon adds so much flavor and really elevates this casserole to the next level. My moms hamburger casserole…

Chicken Flautus
A few weeks ago I got to spend the week with some of my favorite people. We fished, cooked and hung out and it was AMAZING! One of the dishes that my sweet friend Shannon made were these Chicken Flautus and they were so good I have to share them with you. It all started here… To make these flautus super special Shannon made her own version of Rotel that the chicken would eventually soak up. Honestly I thought she was crazy to make her own and questioned why she wasn’t just using the favorite canned version but she assured me I would understand once I tasted it and she…
