Instructions
1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef or sliced steak and cook until browned. Drain any excess fat. 2. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute. 3. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and soy sauce or coconut aminos if using. Stir well to combine. 4. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the mixture. Cover with a lid and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. 5.

Notes
Use lean beef (90%+) for a healthier result. Add vegetables like mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach for more nutrition. For a spicy version, stir in crushed red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños. Use high-quality cheese for the best flavor and melt.
