Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs ground beef (80/20 fat ratio preferred)
  • 1 large onion (diced)
  • 2 large bell peppers (green, red, or mixed, diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)

  3. Add diced onions and bell peppers to the hot oil. Cook for 5-6 minutes until they soften.
  4. Toss in minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.

  7. Lower the heat and add the softened cream cheese, stirring until melted and creamy.
Assembly

  1. Bake for 22-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  2. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For leftovers, cover tightly and store in the fridge for 3-4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Can substitute ground turkey for a lighter option.
