Begin by measuring one pound of ground beef and washing two cups of fresh broccoli. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets and gather your spices.

Place a large skillet over medium heat and add one tablespoon of olive oil. Once shimmering, add the ground beef and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned.

Add the broccoli florets, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is tender yet crisp.

Lower the heat and add heavy cream, stirring gently. Incorporate half of the shredded cheese until melted, then sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and cover for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from heat, serve generous portions, and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
