Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 pound beef steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 package tortellini (cheese or meat)
  • 1 whole bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 whole onion, sliced
  • 2 cups provolone cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • to taste Salt and pepper

Method
 

Cooking the Tortellini and Vegetables
  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook according to package instructions until they are al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they soften and turn slightly caramelized.
  3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat to low, then add the cooked tortellini and shredded provolone cheese to the skillet. Gently mix everything together until the cheese is melted and everything is heated through.
  5. Serve immediately with a sprinkle of additional cheese on top if desired.

Notes

For substitutions, consider swapping out the beef for a leaner cut, like sirloin, or for a vegetarian option, grilled mushrooms or sautéed spinach can be used. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to four days in the fridge or freeze for about three months.
