This recipe calls for a cup of rice, but you can omit the rice or stir in cauliflower rice instead toward the end of cooking. Both are great options if you are eating Keto or low carb.

after you brown the beef do you drain it before adding it to the crockpot?
Luann,
I wouldn’t because of the seasonings…you don’t want to drain them off. To be honest, there really wasn’t much to drain because the onions absorbed most of it.
If you really want to avoid the fat all together, just brown only the onions and ground beef. Then drain. Add the Worcestershire & seasonings after.
Hope that helps.
