Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
3 cups broccoli florets
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon.
Drain excess grease if necessary.
Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and softened.
Stir in the broccoli florets and cook for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Add the cheddar cheese and stir constantly until melted and smooth.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
Notes
You can substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option. Swap cheddar cheese for Monterey Jack if you prefer a milder flavor profile. Add other low-carb vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini for extra texture.
