Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 bell pepper (green, red, or yellow), diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup uncooked pasta (cavatappi or elbow works well)
2 cups beef broth
1 cup shredded provolone cheese
½ cup cream cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
¼ cup sliced green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and then the ground beef. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned.
Stir in the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Add salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce to the mixture, stirring well to combine.
Add the uncooked pasta to the skillet and pour in the beef broth. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
Once simmering, add the shredded provolone and cream cheese, stirring until melted.
Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the casserole.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let sit for 5 minutes, and sprinkle sliced green onions on top before serving.
