Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 bell peppers (any color, sliced into strips)
- 1 yellow onion (sliced into thin strips)
- 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
- 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups shredded provolone cheese (or mozzarella)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers, onion, and mushrooms. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth.
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Toss everything together, then mix in the cream cheese mixture until the beef and vegetables are well coated.
Spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly into a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your low-carb Philly Cheesesteak Casserole!
