Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers
- 1 cup sliced onion
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp steak seasoning
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 3 cups diced potatoes (partially cooked)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cheddar cheese soup
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Brown the ground beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned. Drain any excess fat to keep the dish from becoming greasy.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add sliced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Season with steak seasoning and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until the vegetables are tender and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- Partially cook the potatoes: Prepare the diced potatoes by boiling them in water or microwaving until they are slightly tender but not fully cooked to retain shape during crockpot cooking.
- Combine in the crockpot: Transfer the cooked beef and sautéed vegetables into the crockpot. Then add the partially cooked diced potatoes, cheddar cheese soup, shredded provolone cheese, and sour cream.
- Mix ingredients thoroughly: Stir all the ingredients together in the crockpot until everything is well combined and evenly distributed.
- Cook until done: Cover the crockpot and cook on high for 2 hours or on low for 4-5 hours, until the potatoes are tender and the cheese mixture is melted and bubbly.
- Serve and enjoy: Spoon the hot casserole onto plates and serve immediately for a delicious, cheesy comfort meal.
Notes
- Partially cooking the potatoes prevents them from becoming too mushy in the slow cooker.
- Use fresh or frozen diced potatoes according to your convenience.
- Feel free to substitute provolone cheese with mozzarella or Monterey Jack for a different twist.
- Steak seasoning can be adjusted according to taste preference for spiciness or saltiness.
- Adding a pinch of black pepper or fresh herbs like parsley before serving can enhance flavor.
