Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan forced).
Brown the beef mince in a frying pan over high heat. Add the onion and cook until softened.
Stir through the cream cheese, ⅓ cup of the grated cheese and season with salt and pepper. Continue stirring until melted.
Place into an 18cm x 28cm baking tin.
Place the sliced dill cucumbers (pickles) over the top of the mince.
Whisk the eggs and cream together and pour over the pickles and mince.
Sprinkle over the remaining ⅔ cup grated cheese.
Bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is golden and melted and the egg is cooked through.
Meanwhile, prepare the Big Mac sauce by whisking all of the ingredients in a small bowl.
To serve, place chopped lettuce into the base of each bowl, top with a large scoop of the Big Mac casserole and drizzle over the sauce (as much or little as you like).

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS

You'll know that the Big Mac casserole is cooked through when the cheese is melted and golden and the egg is cooked in the centre of the dish.
Freezing - freeze any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
Storing - store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Dill cucumbers are readily available in the jarred vegetable section of the supermarket (near the sun-dried tomatoes, capers etc). They are also known as pickles or gherkins.
You can use any variety of sweet pickle relish or sweet mustard pickles you like.
If you don't want to make your own Big Mac burger sauce, you can use a store-bought copycat style special burger sauce (such as Heinz, Praise, or supermarkets own brands).
Serve like a Big Mac with lettuce... or add any of your favourite salad ingredients (such as avocado, tomato, cucumber etc).
