Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs ground beef (80/20)
- 1 large onion, diced
- 2 large bell peppers (green, red, or mixed), diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 oz provolone cheese, sliced
- 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick spray.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onions and bell peppers 5–6 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
- Add ground beef, breaking it up, and cook 7–8 minutes until browned. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, reduce heat, and add cream cheese until melted and creamy.
- Transfer mixture to baking dish. Layer provolone over beef, then top with shredded mozzarella.
- Bake 22–25 minutes until cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Use high-fat ground beef for juiciness. Drain excess fat before baking for firm consistency.
- Cheddar cheese can be substituted for provolone or mozzarella.
