Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop and Prepare Ingredients

    Dice the onion and bell pepper, mince the garlic, and slice the mushrooms. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from skillet and crumble into pieces. Leave the bacon grease in the skillet.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Brown the Meats

    In the same skillet with the bacon grease, add the ground beef and Italian sausage. Cook over medium-high heat until browned, breaking up the meat as it cooks, about 6-8 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced onion, bell pepper, minced garlic, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 5

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, paprika, and chili powder. Stir well to combine all ingredients and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Add Cheese and Bacon

    Reduce heat to low, sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top of the meat mixture, and add the crumbled bacon. Cover the skillet and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

  2. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with chopped green onions if desired, and serve hot.
