Philly Cheesesteak CasseroleIngredients: 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef 2 bell peppers 1/2 yellow onion 1 clove garlic 1 teaspoon seasoned salt 4 slices Provolone cheese 4 large eggs 1/4 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon hot sauce 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x9 baking dish with non-stick spray. Dice the peppers and onions into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic. Add the ground beef to a skillet and cook over medium heat, crumbling as it cooks. When beef is broken apart, but still pink, add the peppers, onion, garlic, and seasoned salt. Continue cooking, stirring often, until beef is cooked through and vegetables have softened a bit. Drain grease from the skillet and pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Tear the cheese into small pieces and place over the beef mixture. Add the eggs, cream, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce to a mixing bowl and whisk well to combine. Pour the egg mixture over the beef and place the dish in the oven. Bake for 35 minutes or until the eggs are set. Let sit 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Note:
Philly Cheese Steak Casserole is budget-friendly and perfect for those on a keto diet!

Notes:
1. Tear the Provolone into pieces; do not put whole slices on top of the meat & veggies because the egg mixture needs to be able to seep down into the casserole, which it will be able to do around the torn pieces.
2. Using more than 4 pieces of Provolone is quite alright. I used 6 to have great coverage.
3. I added a half cup of mushrooms, and they weren't quite enough. Next time, I'll add at least 3/4 cup, and maybe even a whole cup. Add them with the vegetables.
4. If you don't have heavy cream, use half-n-half, and add a couple tablespoons of butter (at your discretion - you may want to skip adding the extra butter or add up to 2 Tbsp.).
