Ingredients

Dip Base:

  • 1 lb shaved beef
  • 1 pepper diced (red, green, yellow, or orange)
  • 1 sweet onion diced
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • ½ cup Monterey Jack cheese shredded
  • ½ cup provolone cheese shredded
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¾ tsp salt adjust to taste
  • Fresh cracked pepper

Topping and Garnish:

  • Extra shredded cheese optional
  • 2 –3 scallions sliced
  • Paprika optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a skillet, sauté diced onion and green pepper in a little olive oil until soft and caramelized, about 5–7 minutes.
  • Add shaved beef to the skillet and cook until just browned. Remove mixture from pan and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, melt the butter and whisk in flour to create a roux. Cook 1–2 minutes.
  • Slowly whisk in heavy cream and milk until smooth. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and cook on medium low heat until slightly thickened.
  • Remove from heat and stir in cheddar, Monterey Jack, provolone, and cream cheese until melted and smooth.
  • Fold in the sautéed veggies and beef (if you want the pieces of beef to be smaller, I would chop up the mixture a little before adding it back to the pan).
  • Pour mixture into a baking dish. Top with extra cheese, if desired.
  • Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes, or until bubbly and golden on top.
  • Garnish with sliced scallions and a sprinkle of paprika. Serve warm with chips, bread, or veggies.
