Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or butter.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced beef, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the onions and bell peppers for about 5 minutes until softened. Remove from heat.
Layer frozen hash browns evenly in the bottom of the casserole dish, followed by the cooked beef, onions, and peppers.
In a small bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream. Pour the mixture over the layers. Top with shredded provolone and mozzarella cheeses.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25-30 minutes. For a crispy top, remove the foil during the last 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole sit for 5 minutes before serving. Slice into squares and enjoy!

Substitutions: Use sirloin or flank steak for a leaner option. You can also replace the cream of mushroom soup with cream of chicken or cream of celery soup.For Spicy Kick: Add jalapeños or sprinkle in cayenne pepper for extra heat.Freezing Tip: You can prepare and freeze the casserole before baking. Wrap tightly with foil and bake from frozen, adding 10-15 extra minutes to the cooking time.Cheese Variations: Feel free to switch up the cheeses based on what you have on hand—cheddar or Gouda work great too.
