Instructions: BIG MAC CASSEROLE

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 7 x 11 inch baking pan or casserole dish with cooking spray.
Make the sauce by mixing all ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside to allow flavors to blend.
In a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, place ground beef and break it into small clumps, cooking for approximately 5 minutes.
When meat is nicely browned, drain all excess fat and place the beef into a large mixing bowl.
Add the onion, parsley, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, sour cream, and the dill pickle relish to the meat. Stir in 1/2 cup of the Thousand Island sauce, reserving the rest for later. Beat the eggs and stir them in along with half of the cheese.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish, top with the remaining cheese and bake for 30 minutes.
Serve this casserole with mustard, ketchup, lettuce, and the remaining low-carb Thousand Island sauce.
