How to Make Low Carb Beefy Pepper Jack Casserole in a Slow Cooker
Cris here.
One of our most popular recipes on the website is our Crock Pot Pepper Jack Chicken. We have been making this recipe for years! It came out of one of those times I often call “kitchen sink” moments. You know, those times where we need something for dinner and I just grab random ingredients from our pantry, fridge and freezer until something tastes good. Our Pepper Jack Chicken was a combination we stumbled upon and loved so much we made it a regular recipe in our house and eventually on the site.
So the other day I got to thinking about how a lot of our readers prefer ground beef recipes.Then I decided to convert our pepper jack chicken into a beefy casserole and my family raved about it! They say the beefy version even tops their beloved chicken recipe!
Crock Pot Beefy Pepper Jack Casserole Notes
- We like to use our Make Ahead Ground Beef (Crock Pot Version Here or Electric Pressure Cooker Version Here) to make this dish a quick prep recipe.
- We have made this dish in our casserole crock and our 6 quart Ninja Multicooker. Both work great. The Ninja’s non-stick surface makes for a little easier clean up.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
- If you do not want to use fresh mushrooms, you can substitute them for a 4 oz can of mushrooms (drained) or leave them out completely.
- We prefer to use frozen whole green beans in this recipe. You could use frozen cut or canned (drained) if you would like.
- Looking for more recipes? OurRecipe Findercan help you find exactly what you need.
- Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks,slowcookers and low carb essentials in ourAmazon Influencer Shop.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
