Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, add the ground beef over medium-high heat. Cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- Add the sliced Vienna sausage to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Season with the dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- In another skillet or the same skillet (after draining excess grease), add some oil if necessary and sauté the chopped onions and minced garlic until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the broccoli florets and cook until they are tender but still crisp, around 5-7 minutes.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream cheese and heavy whipping cream. Stir constantly until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Mix in the grated Parmesan cheese until it’s fully incorporated.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked ground beef and sausage mixture with the sautéed vegetables.
- Pour the Alfredo sauce over the mixture and stir until everything is well combined.
6. Transfer to Baking Dish:
- Transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
7. Add the Mozzarella:
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your low-carb beef and broccoli Alfredo bake warm.
Tips:
- For a more robust flavor, sauté the onion and garlic until they are caramelized before adding them to the mixture.
- To save some prep time, use pre-chopped broccoli florets or steam them lightly to soften before adding them to the bake.
- If you want a bit of extra crunch, consider adding a sprinkle of crushed pork rinds or almond flour on top before baking.
- Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as cheddar or gouda, to find your preferred flavor combination.
- To avoid overcooking, keep an eye on the bake during the final stages and remove it from the oven as soon as the cheese is melted and bubbly.
