Description

This Low Carb Philly Cheesesteak Casserole is a cheesy, savory dinner loaded with steak and veggies. Make ahead for a comforting, protein-rich meal!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 large bell peppers (green, red, or a mix), diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz (1 package) cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 oz provolone cheese, sliced
  • 1½ cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick spray to ensure your casserole won’t stick.

2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, cooking for about 5-6 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. Add the ground beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook while breaking up the meat with a spatula until completely browned, about 7-8 minutes.

4. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, allowing it to coat the meat mixture and enhance the flavors.

5. Reduce heat to low. Add the softened cream cheese to the skillet, stirring until it melts completely and coats the meat and vegetable mixture evenly, creating a creamy texture.

6. Once fully combined, transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

7. Layer the sliced provolone cheese over the beef mixture, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top.

8. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden on top.

9. Allow the casserole to rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps the flavors meld together and makes serving easier.


Notes

You can prep this casserole ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake.

Try swapping ground beef for shaved steak for a more authentic Philly flavor.

Serve with a side salad or roasted veggies to complete the low-carb meal.
