Sugar Free Recipe: White Castle Burger Bake

White Castle Burger fast food joints are an iconic fast food stop here on Long Island…

Apparently there’s a long line of vehicles lined up for the drive-through window from 11pm straight through into the wee hours of the morning. Go figure…

I know this because my teenage sons told me – I’m sound asleep at midnight and definitely NOT at a drive-through window!

I can’t remember the last time I ate fast food of any kind, it was somewhere around thirty years ago when I was a teen. Last weekend I decided to surf the web for something fun to make my family and came across a low carb White Castle Burger Casserole on Linda’s Low Carb Menus & Recipes, the ingredients worked for our sugar free lifestyle, so I figured what the heck! I tripled the recipe since I have three man-sized mouths to feed in addition to myself, we had enough for some leftovers too.

My family loved this recipe and told me that indeed it tastes like White Castle – enjoy!

FYI: I served the casserole over a bed of shredded lettuce and added some sliced dill pickles… the pickle slices were a perfect finishing touch!

Fun Fact: White Castle Burgers are also referred to as Belly Bombers – LOL!

Ingredients:

1 pound ground meat (turkey, chicken or beef)
1 packet onion soup mix
2 eggs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup heavy cream
8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:
  1. Brown the hamburger with half of the onion soup mix. Next drain the fat from the cooked meat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  2. Stir in the remaining soup mix or seasoning mixture and put the meat in a greased casserole dish. I used a rectangular baking dish to accommodate the three pounds of ground beef mixture.
  3. Stir in half of the cheese, then top with the remaining cheese.
  4. Whisk the eggs, mayonnaise, cream and a dash of pepper well, pour evenly over the meat.
  5. Bake at 350º for 30-35 minutes or until lightly brown on top. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
  6. Enjoy!

Serving Suggestion: For a true White Castle experience, top each serving with dill pickles and mustard.
