Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef or steak strips
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- 12 oz pasta (penne or rigatoni recommended)
- 1 cup beef broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced green bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
- Cook the Meat: Add the ground beef or steak strips to the skillet. Cook, breaking up the beef as necessary, until the meat is fully browned and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

- Top with Cheese and Broil: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing it in the sauce until fully coated. Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese evenly on top. Broil in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve hot. Enjoy this creamy, cheesy, and savory pasta dish immediately!
Notes
For a smoother sauce, consider adding a splash more broth if needed. Keep an eye on your heat levels to avoid overcooking the vegetables.
