Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cook the beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the ground beef with minced garlic and onion powder until fully browned and crumbly, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Layer the casserole: Spread the cooked beef evenly across the bottom of a 9×13-inch casserole dish. Stir in the chopped bacon pieces.
Prepare the egg mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well blended. Add 8 ounces of shredded Cheddar cheese to the mixture and stir until combined.
Assemble: Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the beef and bacon in the casserole dish. Top with the remaining 4 ounces of Cheddar cheese.
Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown and the center is set.
