Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
  3. Add the diced onion and sliced bell peppers to the skillet, sautéing until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and beef broth until well combined.
  6. In the 9x13 inch baking dish, layer the cooked beef and vegetable mixture evenly across the bottom.
  7. Pour the egg mixture over the beef and vegetables, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
  8. Sprinkle the shredded provolone and mozzarella cheeses on top of the casserole.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is set in the middle.
  10. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
