- Layer It Up: Transfer the beef and veggie mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Make the Creamy Base: In a bowl, whisk together cream cheese, mayonnaise, and eggs until smooth.
- Assemble: Pour the creamy mixture over the beef and vegetables. Top with shredded provolone and mozzarella.
