Recipes | October 26, 2016
*Yields two portions
Ingredients:
1/2 lb ground beef
1 shallot coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
3 tbsp heavy cream (you can use coconut cream)
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup brown mushrooms chopped
1 cup low carb tomato sauce (I use RAOS)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 thick slices of mozzarella cheese
Salt & Pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to high – or broiler.
- Heat up the olive oil in a non stick skillet over medium heat and then add the onions. Saute for 2 minutes and then add the mushrooms. Saute for 3 minutes and then add the minced garlic. Saute for another minute.
- Add the ground beef and cook until well done. Add the tomato sauce, cream, and 1 cup of mozzarella. Cook until the mozzarella melts in the sauce. Taste and add salt & pepper if necessary.
- Transfer the mixture into two ramekin dishes (8 oz each), place two thick slices of mozzarella on top of each and place them into the preheated oven. Bake until the mozzarella on top melts and starts turning golden brown.
- Take the ramekins out of the oven and let them cook down for 5 minutes. You can can garnish them with fresh basil leaves. Serve.

Just finished eating this meal. It was delicious! I’m trying to eat more vegetables so I paired it with my favorite salad (alrugula and spinach dressed with lemon, olive oil, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic)! Can’t wait for the second serving 😁

If I can’t use the dairy in this recipe should I still bake the dish? It seems like all the cooking is done before then right? So I should be able to just skip the baking part.

This is very filling. I just ate half my ramekin and will eat the other half for the meal plan tomorrow. I liked it though.

My husband and I love pizza. I’ve made this recipe at least 4 different times and I feel so guilt-free when I eat it! Thank you Zuzka 🙂

Do you happen to know what size ramekin you used?? My ramekins were 9 ounces and this recipe filled them perfectly. An earlier comment said 4 oz ramekins…seems those would be too tiny for a meal and you would have a lot of leftovers! Thanks!!!

I double checked and I was wrong. The ramekins are 1 cup – 8 oz. Sorry for the confusion. Either way it seems like it worked just fine 🙂 problem would be if your ramekins were not big enough.

My family and I loved this meal! Kids couldn’t get enough! I made mine in a 9×13 pan but quadrupled the recipe. I did add some fresh tomatoes from my garden into the meat mixture. So, it was a little “soupy” but no one complained! I also made a lacinato kale/Parmesan/EVOO/lemon juice/salt&pepper salad for a side.
