Ingredients
- 1 lb smoked beef, sliced thin
- 1 cup bell peppers, sliced (mix of colors)
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or provolone)
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) while you finish the stovetop work.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then sauté onion and bell peppers until soft and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
- Add the sliced smoked beef, cooking 3‑4 minutes until heated through; season with salt and pepper.
- Pour beef broth into the skillet, scraping browned bits, and simmer for 2 minutes to create a light sauce.
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese with half of the shredded cheese; stir until smooth.
- Transfer the beef‑vegetable mixture to a 9‑x‑13‑inch baking dish, spread evenly, then top with the cheese blend and the remaining shredded cheese.
- Bake for 20‑25 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow it to set.
