\"\ud83c\udf73\"\u00a0Directions<\/h3>\n

1. Preheat & Prepare:<\/strong>
\nPreheat your oven to\u00a0375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Lightly grease a\u00a09\u00d713-inch<\/strong>\u00a0baking dish and set aside.<\/p>\n

2. Brown the Beef:<\/strong>
\nIn a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the\u00a0ground beef or shaved steak<\/strong>\u00a0until browned and no longer pink. Drain off any excess fat.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

3. Saut\u00e9 Vegetables:<\/strong>
\nTo the same skillet, add the\u00a0onion<\/strong>,\u00a0bell peppers<\/strong>,\u00a0mushrooms<\/strong>, and\u00a0garlic<\/strong>. Saut\u00e9 for about\u00a05\u20136 minutes<\/strong>, until veggies are softened. Stir in\u00a0salt<\/strong>,\u00a0pepper<\/strong>,\u00a0smoked paprika<\/strong>\u00a0(if using), and\u00a0Worcestershire sauce<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

4. Layer the Filling:<\/strong>
\nSpread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly in the bottom of your prepared baking dish.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

5. Mix the Creamy Topping:<\/strong>
\nIn a mixing bowl, beat together the\u00a0cream cheese<\/strong>,\u00a0mayonnaise<\/strong>, and\u00a0eggs<\/strong>\u00a0until smooth and fully combined.<\/p>\n

6. Assemble the Casserole:<\/strong>
\nPour the creamy mixture evenly over the meat and veggies. Sprinkle the top with the\u00a0provolone<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0mozzarella<\/strong>\u00a0cheese.<\/p>\n

7. Bake to Perfection:<\/strong>
\nPlace in the oven and bake for\u00a025\u201330 minutes<\/strong>, or until the top is golden and bubbling.<\/p>\n

8. Rest & Serve:<\/strong>
\nAllow the casserole to rest for about\u00a05 minutes<\/strong>\u00a0before slicing and serving. Enjoy it on its own or pair it with\u00a0a fresh green salad<\/strong>,\u00a0crusty bread<\/strong>, or\u00a0toasted hoagie rolls<\/strong>\u00a0for a sandwich-style experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
