My kids love easy keto chilli casserole. It’s a mid-week winter family favourite.
Scroll down and watch the quick cooking video. You won’t believe how easy it is to make for dinner tonight and it’s only 7g net carbs per serving.
Easy Keto Chilli Casserole
We love chilli but without the kidney beans and the rice, how can you make it low-carb and a family friendly meal?
By bumping up the meat, the cheese, the sour cream and the peppers, makes this tasty and healthy alternative to regular chilli.
Who wants to cook me some easy keto chilli casserole tonight?? 7g net carbs and ready in 25 mins.Click To TweetI sometimes serve it with cauliflower rice, and I spice this healthy rice alternative with some extra chilli, coriander (cilantro) and cumin, just before serving. Because no-one wants bland rice do they? Let a lone bland cauliflower rice.
That would just be too much to ask from your children.
Whenever I have the oven on cooking a dish, I always throw something else in to be economical with my power usage. It also helps me to be organised for the week ahead of lunch boxes.
Why not try my coconut flour chocolate chip cookies? Or my mini cheese loaves? Both are guaranteed to be eaten by the fussiest child (and adult) for lunch or an after school snack.

This is delicious! It makes enough for two for two nights and is even more flavoursome the second night. Definitely one to repeat over and over!

If you wanted a more fried chicken taste to the sesame chicken you could spray the chicken with oil before baking. I do that with my friends and onion rings.
Liz says

We are making this again tonight! Love it! Serving avocado on the side and homemade garlic and olive oil tortilla chips baked in the oven. 😍
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com says
Yummmmm, avocado makes everything taste good. Have you tried my Fat Head nachos yet?
Deryk Pedersen says
Awesome recipe!
I added some picked jalapenos for some more heat and substituted 1/2 the cheddar for mozzarella (ran out). 😛
Will definitely make again.
Sean says
Hey Libby,
Another super recipe from you. Just had my third for dinner, I used 600g of mince and everything else the same. I think I need more chilli!!
Thanks again
Jo says
This recipe is to die for!! I made exactly to the recipe and boy it has a chilli kick, that good you don’t even miss the kidney beans. I served this on a bed of crunchy cabbage. My husband had left overs 2 days later and it was even better he tells me.
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com says
Jo, you have just made my day – 🙂
Cindy Smith says

Lisa Waller says
This recipe is the bomb!!!! Will definitely be preparing this over and over again. Might even sub chicken from time to time.
Sweta says
Hi Libby,thanks for all the amazing recipes!! I can’t wait to try this one !! Can we substitute the canned tomatoes with freshly diced ones?TIA
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com says
Sure thing! I buy a lot of canned tomatoes because they are so much cheaper than fresh, but fresh would taste amazing. Go for it!
Denise Farr says
I made this tonight, actually doubled the recipe so I have left-overs or maybe tomorrow night’s dinner! I will definitely be making this again, a little spicy and tasty with the sour cream.
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com says
Wow, this really is becoming a family favourite recipe here, so soon after it was published – hurrah!!
Jen says
What is the serving size ?
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com says
There recipe states serves 4, so 1/4 of the recipe per person. Some people may wish to eat less or serve with a side salad.
