Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Vegetables

  • 1 lb 80/20 ground beef
  • 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

Dairy

  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Other

  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets to ensure even cooking.
  2. Sauté Onions and Garlic: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Cook Ground Beef: Push the onions to the side of the skillet and add the ground beef. Break the meat apart with a spatula and cook until it is browned and fully cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add Broccoli and Season: Stir in the broccoli florets, seasoning the mixture with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the broccoli turns bright green and tender-crisp, around 4-5 minutes.
  5. Melt Cheese: Sprinkle shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top of the skillet. Cover with a lid and allow the cheese to melt completely, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve: Serve the skillet hot directly from the pan for a warm, flavorful meal.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add some crushed red pepper flakes while cooking the beef.
  • You can substitute broccoli with cauliflower for a different texture while keeping it keto-friendly.
  • Use fresh sharp cheddar cheese for the best melting and flavor.
  • Make sure not to overcook broccoli to retain its nutrients and crunch.
  • This recipe is easily doubled for meal prep or larger families.
