Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • 9x13-inch Baking Dish

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 lb Italian green beans trimmed and steamed
  • 4 medium tomatoes diced
  • 8 slices bacon chopped
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.
  • Add the minced garlic and finely chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the steamed Italian green beans to the skillet, tossing them gently to coat in the bacon fat and aromatics. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Stir in the diced tomatoes, fresh thyme, and rosemary. Continue to cook until the tomatoes start to soften, about 5 minutes. Season with black pepper and salt to taste.
  • Transfer the green bean and tomato mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle the cooked bacon evenly over the top.
  • Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the casserole.
  • Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the top and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with a golden-brown top.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.

Pairing Suggestions

This Italian Keto Green Bean and Bacon Casserole is inspired by the rustic cuisine of Tuscany, a region known for its simplicity and rich, hearty flavors. Tuscan cooking often relies on fresh, local ingredients like tomatoes and green beans, combined with cured meats and fragrant herbs, which make this dish not just delicious but also deeply rooted in tradition.

Special Tip

For an extra burst of freshness and a touch of acidity, add a splash of balsamic vinegar to the green beans and tomatoes just before transferring the mixture to the baking dish. This will enhance the dish's depth of flavor and complement the richness of the bacon and cheese.
