Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Cheese
- 1 lb 90/10 lean ground beef
- 4 slices provolone cheese
Vegetables
- 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
Seasonings and Sauces
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
Base
- 2 cups cooked cauliflower rice or white rice
Instructions
- Brown the beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Break the meat into small crumbles as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary to keep the dish lean.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add sliced onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms to the skillet with the cooked beef. Sauté everything together for 5 to 7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, enhancing their natural sweetness.
- Add garlic and seasonings: Stir in the minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, and cracked black pepper. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the seasonings are well incorporated.
- Melt the cheese: Reduce the heat to low and layer the provolone cheese slices evenly over the beef and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt completely, about 60 seconds.
- Serve: Divide the cooked cauliflower rice or white rice evenly into four bowls. Spoon the cheesy beef and vegetable mixture over the rice and serve immediately for a warm, satisfying meal.
Notes

- Feel free to substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken.
- Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more Worcestershire sauce or pepper if desired.
- For extra heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes when sautéing the vegetables.
- This dish reheats well and makes great leftovers for meal prep.
