Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb 90/10 lean ground beef
- 2 large green bell peppers, sliced into thin strips
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 8 oz white button mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 2 cups cooked cauliflower rice or white rice
Instructions
- Brown the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, approximately 6-8 minutes, breaking it into small crumbles. Drain excess fat if necessary to keep the dish lean.
- Sauté the Vegetables: Add the sliced onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, enhancing their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Add Garlic and Seasonings: Incorporate the minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, and cracked black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the mixture is fragrant and well combined.
- Melt the Cheese: Reduce the heat to low. Layer the provolone cheese slices evenly over the beef and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid for 60 seconds or until the cheese is completely melted, creating a gooey topping.
- Assemble the Bowls: Divide the cooked cauliflower rice or white rice into four bowls. Portion the cheesesteak mixture over the base and serve immediately while hot and melty.
Notes
- Use cauliflower rice for a low-carb, paleo-friendly alternative to traditional white rice.
- For extra flavor, add crushed red pepper flakes or a splash of hot sauce when adding the Worcestershire sauce.
- Drain the excess fat after browning the beef to reduce greasiness and calories.
- Feel free to use provolone, mozzarella, or even cheddar cheese based on preference.
- Can be meal prepped by storing the beef and veggies separately from rice, reheating before serving.
