These are the same dish. “Cheeseburger casserole” and “hamburger casserole” are two names for one baked tray of seasoned ground beef and melted cheese, and which one you call it mostly comes down to which side of the Atlantic you learned to cook on. Americans tend to say hamburger casserole. The cheese is a given either way. So if you came here searching for a carnivore hamburger casserole, you are in the right place. This is it.
Is hamburger casserole the same as cheeseburger casserole? Yes. The only real difference is the name. Both are ground beef baked with egg and cheese into a sliceable, zero-carb tray bake. The carnivore version just drops the pasta, breadcrumbs and tinned soup that some older recipes smuggle in, and lets the beef and cheese carry it.
