Low Carb Zucchini Beef Casserole


Need an easy, low-net carb casserole? This dish is amazing!

For the past few years, cauliflower and zucchini have kicked kale to the curb as the ultimate carb replacement in many of our traditional recipes. (trust me – we are thrilled about this!) This simple casserole takes full advantage of both cauliflower rice (sold in the freezer section of our supermarkets) and zucchini. We continued to skinny our dish by using lean ground beef (saving a ton of calories and fat) and light sour cream. Add in some mushrooms, and we have an amazing casserole the entire family will love!

Enjoy!
