 Ingredients

• 1 lb (500 g) ground beef

• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

• ½ cup cream cheese

• ½ small onion, chopped

• 1 small green bell pepper, chopped (optional)

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1 tsp ground cumin

• 1 tsp sweet paprika

• Salt and black pepper to taste

 Instructions

1. Cook the beef:
   In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.

2. Add aromatics:
   Stir in the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for 3–4 minutes, until softened.

3. Make it creamy:
   Add the cream cheese, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well combined and creamy.

4. Top with cheese:
   Sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly over the top. Cover the skillet and let it melt, or place the skillet under a broiler for 2–3 minutes until bubbly and golden.

5. Serve hot:
   Serve straight from the skillet with tortilla chips, crusty bread, or over rice.

 Tips for Best Results

• Use freshly grated cheese for better melt and flavor.

• You can add jalapeños for extra heat or corn for added sweetness.

• Great for reheating the next day — just warm over low heat with a splash of milk.
