Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound ground beef (preferably lean, such as 80/20 blend)
2 large bell peppers (any color, diced)
1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes (drained)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or a blend, or mozzarella)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
Add the diced bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes.
Mix in the drained diced tomatoes with the beef and peppers, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Top with shredded cheese, covering the entire mixture.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
