Ingredients
- 2 lbs Ground beef (900 g)
- 1 large Onion (150 g, diced)
- 2 large Bell peppers (300 g, diced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 8 oz Cream cheese (225 g, softened)
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 8 oz Provolone cheese (225 g, sliced)
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella (150 g)
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, cooking for about 5-6 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook while breaking it up until browned, approximately 7-8 minutes.
- Stir in the Worcestershire sauce into the beef mixture, ensuring evenly coated.
- Lower the heat and mix in the softened cream cheese until melted and creamy.
- Transfer the beef mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Layer with slices of provolone cheese over the beef, and finally sprinkle the shredded mozzarella on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden. Allow it to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
