Mack's Goulash

I love this recipe it brings back memories of my Dad. Dad would call me up and say, "I'm going to Jackson, wanna go eat at Morrison's?". Of course, it was a trip with my Dad! We would get this every time we went. I don't think they had a name for it other than Okra, Onions, and Tomatoes. My Dad was a very good cook so he started making it at home and well here's his recipe. I hope you enjoy it.

Krystal Burger Casserole

I love Krystals but do not like the fact that they are 20 carbs each.  It took me a little while to get this recipe like I wanted it.  I mixed and tested, tested and mixed then I got it just right.  My kids love it and that's a great thing. I hope you will like this one as much as we do.

Krystal Burger Casserole

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 (1 ounce) envelope onion soup mix
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
• salt and pepper, to taste

Preheat oven to 350.  Brown the ground beef with half of the onion soup mix; drain the fat season to taste with salt and pepper.  Stir in the remaining soup mix and put the meat in a 9-10 inch pie plate.  Stir in half the cheese, then top with the remaining cheese.  Beat the eggs, mayonnaise, and cream then pour evenly over the meat.  Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.

Bacon Meatloaf

I 'love' meatloaf, all kinds, so I thought about making a low carb one. Meatloaf without bread crumbs might be a little tricky but this worked out very well. It's tasty and filling. If you pair it with green beans... now thats a winner!  One slice of meatloaf and half cup of green beans is only 8.6 carbs. I hope you enjoy this one.

Bacon Meatloaf

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 lb bacon, chopped    
• 14 ounce can of fire roasted tomatoes
• 1 red onion, minced
• 1 bell pepper, minced 
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup grated Parmesan
• 2 tbsp oregano
• 1/2 tbsp sea salt
• Pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 400 Degrees Fahrenheit
Chop your bacon and combine in a mixing bowl with your beef.  Add all remaining ingredients to the bowl, and use your hands to mix well.  You can now form it into a loaf and put it in a pyrex dish or a loaf pan.  Bake for an hour or until the meat is cooked through, internal temperature needs to be at least 165 Degrees  F,  Remove from oven and let sit for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
