Recipe Notes for making the best Mexican Street Corn Casserole

Frozen corn is best for this recipe. Canned corn can be used in a pinch. You can also use fresh corn off the cob if you prefer.
Queso fresco or Cotija cheese are the authentic cheeses used for Mexican Street Corn. Definitely use them if they’re available to you. If you can’t find any, feta and Monterey Jack are good substitutes. I use them in this recipe because I’m more likely to find them at my local grocery store, (living in rural Canada).
For a spicier version, you can always add some cayenne pepper, or a diced jalapeno.
To make this recipe ahead of time, mix the ingredients and place them in the greased casserole dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Then bake right before serving.
Corn casserole can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days.
To freeze, let the casserole chill completely in the refrigerator, then place it in an airtight, freezer-safe container. It will last up to three months in the freezer.

Is Chili Keto?

Normally, no. Most chili recipes contain beans. This brings the carb count too high to be considered low carb or keto-friendly. This recipe for low carb, keto chili requires no beans or tricky ingredients that are hard to find.

What if I’m not on Keto?

If you’re not living a low carb lifestyle, you can feel free to add some heartiness to this recipe by adding some canned beans. Feel free to use either pinto beans or kidney beans. Either way, it turns out delicious. Just make sure you are using canned beans and not dry beans.

Can I add anything else to low carb chili?

Aside from the low carb toppings mentioned below, you can also add additional vegetables to keto chili if you’d like. More veggies means more fiber, which will make this chili more filling. Things like zucchini, mushrooms, and cauliflower can be sautéed with the onion and pepper.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

The Best Keto Chili Recipe

This is the Best Keto Chili Recipe because it’s loaded with 3 kinds of delicious meat, Ground Beef, Sausage and Bacon!!! Usings 3 types of meat not only means tons of protein but it also adds so much more flavour to the chili. You really don’t miss the beans!!! The recipe requires minimal effort and only uses simple and easy to find ingredients like ground beef, sausage and canned tomatoes. The low carb chili is also naturally high in protein and is paleo as well as gluten and dairy free.

Recipe Notes:

– This chili recipe is thick and hearty. If you prefer a chili that is not quite as thick, simply add a little water until it reaches the desired thickness.

– To thicken keto chili, you can bring it to a boil, turn down the heat, and simmer it with the lid off. As it simmers, the liquid begins to evaporate, which thickens the chili. Make sure you stir it occasionally.

– Store bought chili seasoning can be used for this recipe if preferred. Just swap out the spices for chili sesaoning. (make sure it’s gluten free) Taco seasoning also works well if needed.

– You can skip the sausage in this recipe and use just ground beef or ground turkey if desired. You can also use regular sausage if you don’t like it spicy.

– Add a little water before reheating this chili. If you like it thick just add a small amount. If you like it runny… add a bit more.
