Ingredients

For the Soup:

• 1 pound ground beef (or thinly sliced ribeye steak, diced)
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 cups beef broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 cups shredded provolone cheese (or mozzarella)
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (optional, for thickening)

For the Bacon and Cheesy Toast:

• 4 slices of crusty bread (e.g., sourdough or baguette)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Beef and Vegetables

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add ground beef (or steak) and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
2. In the same pot, sauté onions, bell pepper, and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 2: Make the Soup Base

3. Return the cooked beef to the pot and stir in Worcestershire sauce.
4. Add beef broth, bringing it to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
5. Stir in heavy cream and shredded provolone cheese. Mix until the cheese melts and the soup becomes creamy. If a thicker consistency is desired, stir in 1 tablespoon of flour and simmer until thickened.

Step 3: Prepare the Cheesy Toast

6. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread butter on one side of each bread slice.
7. Sprinkle cheddar cheese and bacon crumbles on top. Place on a baking sheet and bake until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden.

8. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with crispy bacon bits. Serve with cheesy toast on the side or as a topping.
