Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and softened cream cheese. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar, mozzarella, diced jalapeños, green onions, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly incorporated.
Fold in most of the crumbled beef, reserving a small portion for topping.
Spread the mixture evenly into a small baking dish or oven-safe skillet.
Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese and remaining beef crumbles over the top.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until hot and bubbly and lightly golden on top.
Let cool for 5 minutes before serving warm with chips, crackers, or vegetables.

For a vegetarian version, omit the beef and add extra cheese or sautéed mushrooms.

Adjust spice level by removing or keeping jalapeño seeds, or add cayenne for extra heat.

Substitute beef with cooked turkey or chicken if desired.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheat in a 350°F oven until warmed through or microwave in short intervals, stirring between each.

Freezing is not recommended as the texture may change.
