Keto Dinner: Broccoli & Chicken Sausage Casserole

It’s that time again! Monday Menu, time! I think we should start a new series titled Keto with Kris. It has a ring to it, right? Today’s recipe is a keto chicken dinner that works like comfort food and as easy as your old casserole dishes. 

Now when I say “keto dinner,” I want you all to realize that no food is actually “keto.” Keto is short for ketosis which is a STATE your body enters when eating high fats and low carbs. It’s that simple. But just for your own education, I want you all to know the difference. Research matters, friends. 

I shared this on Instagram Stories a while back, and it’s so yummy. It’s a fan favorite in my family, so I hope it becomes a family favorite for you, too! Even if you’re not on the low carb bandwagon (which I say to that why not, sister?!), this is still an easy and delicious meal to add to the meal rotation.

This easy & delicious low-carb Keto-friendly broccoli & chicken sausage casserole is extra cheesy, full of flavor, and a quick way to get dinner on the table!

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 jar of Alfredo sauce (approximately 15 oz jar)
• 2 12 oz. bags of frozen cauliflower rice 
• 1 bag of frozen broccoli cuts
• 1 package of nitrate-free chicken sausage
• 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella

Instructions

1. Warm up your oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Steam your broccoli & cauliflower according to the package.
3. Cut sausage into small 1/4 inch slices.
4. Add half of your jar of Alfredo sauce to the bottom of a casserole dish.
5. Layer cauliflower rice on top of Alfredo sauce.
6. Layer broccoli over cauliflower.
7. Add in the sliced sausage.
8. Drizzle the remaining Alfredo sauce to cover. Add garlic salt & pepper to taste.
9. Bake at 400, covered, for 20 minutes.
10. Uncover and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
11. Continue to bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted.

Notes

Mix well after taking out of oven to ensure that the Alfredo sauce is covering everything.

We are loving this one, and I definitely make this on nights when I need something super easy and fast. You could definitely change it up and add some shredded chicken from a rotisserie chicken if that’s your jam, but the sliced chicken sausage is what we’ve been doing.

Let me know if you try it and how you like it!
