Ingredients

1 lb (450g) ground beef

1 medium onion, sliced

2 medium bell peppers (red and green), sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened

1 cup (100g) shredded provolone cheese

1 cup (100g) shredded mozzarella cheese

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until they are softened. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Remove the mixture and set aside.

Cook the Ground Beef: In the same skillet, add the ground beef. Season with Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is well browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess grease if necessary.

Combine Ingredients: Lower the heat and stir in the softened cream cheese into the cooked beef until melted and creamy. Then, fold in the sautéed vegetables until everything is well combined.

Layer the Casserole: Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish. Spread it evenly and top with shredded provolone cheese, followed by shredded mozzarella cheese.

Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.

Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, let it cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot.
