Ingredients
  

For the Casserole
  • 1 pound Ground Beef (80/20 fat ratio preferred) Richness and moisture ensure a juicy texture; turkey or chicken can be used for a leaner dish.
  • 1 medium Onion Adds a sweet depth; consider yellow or white onions for extra flavor, with shallots as a possible substitute.
  • 2 medium Bell Peppers Brings vibrant color and taste; mix various colors for visual appeal, or swap in zucchini for a low-carb alternative.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Enhances flavor profile magnificently; fresh is ideal, but garlic powder works fine in a pinch.
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese Delivers a creamy texture that binds the ingredients; opt for low-fat cream cheese if you want to lighten things up.
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce Infuses umami goodness; soy sauce can be an excellent substitute for a similar savory kick.
  • to taste Salt and Pepper Crucial for seasoning to taste; adjust levels based on personal preferences and dietary needs.
  • 6 ounces Provolone Cheese Bestows that classic cheesesteak flavor; feel free to substitute with Cheddar or Monterey Jack for added variety.
  • 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese (shredded) Ensures a chewy, gooey texture; other melting cheeses can be substituted for a different experience.
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Perfect for sautéing the vegetables; any light cooking oil can serve as an alternative.
