Ingredients
- Main Ingredients:
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 orange bell pepper, chopped
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 2 lbs ground beef
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- ½ cup water
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
Instructions
- Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pan, sauté the chopped green, red, and orange bell peppers along with the chopped onion in oil over medium-high heat until tender. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Brown the Ground Beef: In the same pan, brown the ground beef, seasoning with salt and pepper. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Combine the Ingredients: Return the cooked beef to the pan and add the sautéed peppers and onions. Stir in the cream cheese, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic powder, water, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly and heat over medium heat until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble.
- Add the Cheese: Turn off the heat, sprinkle the shredded cheese over the beef mixture, and stir until the cheese melts and is evenly incorporated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- Assemble the Sloppy Joes: Serve the cheesesteak mixture on toasted hamburger buns. Optionally, top with additional shredded cheese for extra flavor.
Notes
- For an extra cheesy twist, add more cheese on top of the buns before serving.
- You can also swap the bell peppers for other vegetables like mushrooms or spinach for variation.
- Feel free to use other cheeses like cheddar or American if you prefer.
