Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add sliced bell peppers and onions; sauté until tender and caramelized.
  3. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  4. In the skillet, stir in cream cheese or a mix of cheeses with a splash of milk or cream to create a creamy sauce.
  5. Add cooked pasta to the skillet; toss to combine and heat through.
  6. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce if desired.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with extra cheese or chopped parsley if preferred.

Notes

  • Add mushrooms or jalapeños for texture and heat.
  • Substitute sliced steak for ground beef to mimic traditional cheesesteak.
  • For vegetarian, use sautéed mushrooms and extra cheese.
  • Use penne, rigatoni, or elbow macaroni as pasta alternatives.
