Tea n' More

Five ingredients, one dish, 145g of protein and not a single carb. The carnivore cheeseburger casserole takes five minutes of prep and thirty one in the oven. Americans call it hamburger casserole. Same tray, same cheese, different passport. Everything that goes in: - 1kg beef mince, 20% fat. - 300g bacon. - 200g mozzarella. - 2 eggs. - 50ml double cream. That is the list. No tinned soup, no pasta, no breadcrumbs smuggled in to make the beef go further. Nobody has to chop an onion and pretend it was for the flavour. Brown the bacon, take it out, chop it. Brown the mince in the same pan with most of the cheese going in as it cooks. Whisk the eggs and cream, fold it through the beef with most of the bacon, press it into a dish and lay the rest of the cheese and bacon on top. Foil on, 200C, fifteen minutes. Foil off, five more. Rest it five before you go near it. What comes out is a tray of beef and bacon set under a cheese lid that has gone brown and slightly crisp at the corners, sitting in its own rendered fat, and it slices like a proper bake. Then look at what you have actually eaten. 145 grams of protein. 170 grams of fat. Zero carbs. Every fat soluble vitamin, all the B12 you need for a week, heme iron your body absorbs on the first attempt, and creatine and taurine you will not get from a plant at any dose. Complicated cooking exists because somebody needs to justify a shopping list. Five things in a dish. Feeds you twice. What exactly is anyone else doing.
