This Keto Broccoli Casserole with Bacon is easy to make and full of vegetables.

I was blown away at how tasty and easy this broccoli casserole was to make.
Using simple ingredients you probably have right in your fridge, it comes together in no time.
Keto Broccoli Casserole with Bacon
I made this in a ceramic dish but you could put it in something similar or easily split it into individual ramekins.
It’s very easy to change or adjust the size to fit your family’s needs.
I love the simplicity of this dish.
First, you need to chop and blanch your broccoli so it is semi-cooked.
If you have frozen broccoli you don’t need to use this step. It’s best to unthaw the frozen broccoli and drain some of the extra liquid first.
Next, simply dump the remaining ingredients except for half a cup of shredded cheese, into a large bowl and mix.
This will be your cheese “sauce” for the casserole.
Finally, spread the cheese mixture over the broccoli and mix around the best you can.
I used a rubber spatula to spread the cheese over top of the broccoli. It doesn’t have to be perfect because it will melt around the broccoli.
Spread some extra shredded cheese over the top if you wish and bake the casserole at 350 for 20-30 minutes.
We love to pair this side dish with our favorite Cast Iron Chicken Thighs for a perfect keto meal.
