Low Carb Brussel Sprout Casserole Tips & Tricks

I love a recipe that encourages people to eat more vegetables and this brussels sprouts gratin style casserole and so versatile. Of course I prefer it as made but there are so many variations you can make, using this gluten-free recipe as a guide!

  • Seasonings: Since the parmesan/asiago cheese is generally salty you MAY NOT need to season yours with additional salt but a pinch of pepper is always a good idea. You can also try adding some Onion powder, garlic powder, paprika or even herbs like rosemary to spice things up!
  • Cheese: This recipe is focused on a Alfredo style cheese sauce, but you can feel free to adapt it to using cheese your family prefers; cheddar cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, gruyere cheese, etc.
  • One Pan option: You can make this entire recipe in ONE PAN if you are starting with a skillet/pan that is oven proof; like a cast-iron skillet or my favorite Hex Clad cookware!
  • Add Bacon: Everything is better with bacon, right?!?! After steaming your Brussels sprouts, simply sauté chopped bacon in that same skillet then drain off the bacon grease and proceed with making the sauce, Easy Peasy bacon deliciousness!
  • Toppings: If you are craving a comfort food casserole crunch topping on this Brussels sprouts au gratin, I like to use pork panko (aka finely ground pork rinds) as my topping! It give you all the crunch you crave without any of the carbs!
  • How to store leftovers: Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-4 day or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Frozen Brussel Sprouts: You can use fresh or frozen Brussel sprouts for this keto casserole, but I think fresh have a slightly better texture.
