Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 pound ground beef or thinly sliced steak
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 slices Provolone cheese
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes.
  3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef or steak and cook until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Add the sliced onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Stir in the minced garlic and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. In a small bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese.
  7. Stuff each bell pepper half with the meat and vegetable mixture.
  8. Top each stuffed pepper with a slice of Provolone cheese and a dollop of the cream cheese mixture.
  9. Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish. Add about 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the dish to help steam the peppers.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic.
  • If you prefer a different cheese, Swiss or cheddar can be substituted for Provolone.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
