Keto Cheesy Broccoli Casserole

Cheesy Broccoli Casserole Made for Keto Diets!

Casseroles are a hearty, comfort food.

But trying to cut carbs make getting our favorite casseroles into our diet a little bit more difficult!

That’s why we LOVE this super simple recipe!

It’s full of flavor and hits the comfort food spot, without breaking the keto diet!

The crust is made with an ingredient that most keto diet fans have in their pantry.

You know what that ingredient is, right?

PORK RINDS.

Yep. I bet you have like 3 bags in your pantry now…ha!

Plus, you probably have a frozen broccoli or fresh broccoli sitting around.

And cheese.

Oh yeah.

Can’t live on a keto diet without cheese!

INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR KETO BROCCOLI CASSEROLE:

Frozen chopped broccoli, defrosted.

You can definitely use fresh broccoli in this casserole.

You need to wash, chop, and boil the broccoli first until it’s tender.

Sour cream

This gives it a little kick and makes the casserole super creamy!

1 Egg

This holds the casserole together and should be beaten well.


Softened cream cheese

You can quickly soften cream cheese in the microwave for 10 seconds or leave it at room temperature while you’re working on your other ingredient prepping.

But yes, definitely make sure your cream cheese is room temperature!

Onion

Make sure onion is peeled, and chopped.

Unsalted Butter

It’s not the end of the world if you use salted, but you want to try to use unsalted if possible because of the pork rinds.


Crushed pork rind crumbs

These give this casserole an extra punch of flavor as well as that nice, comforting crunch that casserole lovers enjoy on the top of their favorite comfort food!

Shredded cheddar cheese

Cheddar pairs perfectly with broccoli!

Can You Freeze Keto Broccoli Casserole?

You can make this ahead, freeze it, and use it within 3 weeks.
