Ingredients

• Beef sirloin - 300 grams, thinly sliced
• Broccoli florets - 200 grams
• Cream cheese - 100 grams, softened
• Cheddar cheese - 100 grams, shredded
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Almond flour - 2 tablespoons (for topping)

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add the sliced beef. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned.
3. Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and drizzle with soy sauce. Stir and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is tender but still bright green.
4. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until smooth.
5. Add the beef and broccoli mixture to the bowl with the cream cheese, stirring until everything is well coated.
6. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and spread it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and almond flour on top for a crunchy topping.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
8. Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then serve warm.
