This is one of my husband’s favorite meals for a weeknight! | August 15, 2025

This low carb beef and pepper cheesy bake is a go-to recipe for those busy weeknights when you want something comforting yet healthy. Growing up in the Midwest, casseroles were a staple in our household, and this dish is my low-carb twist on a classic favorite. It’s perfect for anyone looking to cut down on carbs without sacrificing flavor. The combination of savory ground beef, vibrant bell peppers, and a golden layer of melted cheese makes it a crowd-pleaser, even for those who aren’t watching their carb intake.
This dish pairs wonderfully with a simple green salad drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. For a bit more substance, you can serve it alongside some roasted vegetables like asparagus or broccoli. If you’re not strictly low-carb, a slice of crusty bread would be perfect to soak up any delicious juices from the bake.
