Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 16 ounces (454 grams) ground beef
Vegetables:
- 1/2 medium onion (sliced)
- 1 bell pepper (sliced)
Cheese and Dairy:
- 2 cups (240 grams) Monterey Jack cheese (shredded)
- 4 ounces (113 grams) cream cheese
Seasonings:
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the oven to 350F (175C), ensuring a consistent temperature for optimal cooking.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high and sauté ground beef with onions and bell peppers until vegetables soften and meat browns completely, then eliminate excess grease.
- Incorporate Worcestershire sauce, cream cheese, salt, and pepper into the meat mixture, stirring until cream cheese melts and ingredients integrate seamlessly.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and create 8 uniform cheese circles using Monterey Jack, baking for 8-10 minutes until edges turn golden and develop a delicate lace-like texture.
- Allow cheese circles to cool briefly while remaining flexible, then strategically layer the prepared beef and vegetable mixture onto each circle.
- Gently roll the cheese around the filling, forming compact roll-ups, and permit them to cool and solidify before serving, ensuring structural integrity and optimal flavor melding.
Notes
- Customize cheese varieties like cheddar or provolone for different flavor profiles while maintaining keto-friendly requirements.
- Drain ground beef thoroughly to prevent soggy roll-ups and ensure a crisp, clean texture that holds together perfectly.
- Use fresh vegetables for maximum crunch and flavor intensity, chopping them finely to distribute evenly throughout the beef mixture.
- Experiment with additional low-carb seasonings like garlic powder, smoked paprika, or red pepper flakes to elevate the roll-ups’ taste without adding carbohydrates.
