225g sliced mushrooms
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp salt

Cooking Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

- Place bell pepper halves cut-side up in a baking dish.
- Spoon the beef and vegetable mixture evenly into each bell pepper half.
- Top each pepper with provolone cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Optional: Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Pro Tip: For an extra cheesy and gooey Philly Cheesesteak experience, consider adding a layer of cream cheese to the bottom of the bell pepper before adding the beef mixture.
Variations: Add a sprinkle of chili flakes for a spicy kick. Experiment with different cheeses, such as mozzarella or cheddar, for a unique flavor profile. Consider adding a dollop of mayonnaise after baking to enhance the creaminess.
