Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Vegetables

1 ½ lb. Ground beef
2 Bell peppers, chopped
½ Onion, chopped
2 tsp. Minced garlic

Seasonings

1 tsp. Seasoned salt
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

Dairy

8 Slices provolone cheese
4 Large eggs
¼ C. Heavy whipping cream

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the casserole.
Brown the meat: In a skillet over medium-high heat on the stovetop, begin to brown the ground beef until partially cooked.
Add vegetables: Add the chopped onions and bell peppers to the skillet with the beef. Continue cooking until the beef is fully browned and the vegetables start to soften.
Season: Stir in the seasoned salt and minced garlic, sautéing for an additional 30 seconds to release flavors, then drain any excess grease from the skillet.
Assemble the casserole: Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish well. Layer the cooked beef and vegetable mixture evenly on the bottom of the dish, then top with the slices of provolone cheese.
Prepare egg mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy whipping cream, Worcestershire sauce, and eggs.
Pour and bake: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the meat and cheese layers in the baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is cooked through and set.

Notes

Make sure to drain excess grease to avoid a soggy casserole.
You can substitute bell peppers with other vegetables like mushrooms or jalapeños for added flavor.
Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving to help it set better.
For a lighter version, you can use reduced-fat cheese and milk instead of heavy cream.
