Make Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches at home! Quick. Easy. And oh so tasty!

Philly Cheesesteaks

I have never been to Philly, but I love a good Philly Cheesesteak.  Awhile ago I shared a Philly cheesesteak sloppy joe version that was pretty tasty.  But this time I am going for the real thing!  I am sure there are plenty of people from Philly out there who would disagree with me.  But for something you can make at home, this comes pretty darn close!  Plus you get to choose the quality of meat you use, so I am going to say that is even better.

I am surprised how quickly these came together.  Plus, you can customize them however you want.  I put mushrooms in mine, and green peppers in my husband’s.  We both were happy, and not much extra work for me.  These are really easy to scale down for just a couple people, or make a bunch for a crowd.

What a great thing to have for the Super Bowl.  Have a station set up with all the veggies, meat, and cheese.  People can make there own sandwich.  Then you just have to wrap it in foil, and throw it in the oven to melt the cheese. Serve with Fat Free Potato Chips for a fun dinner.

I used some ribeye steaks I had in the freezer, but I think NY strip, filet, sirloin or even a flank steak would be good.  I was a little skeptical that these Philly Cheesesteaks would taste like the local place I like, but it was very close.

My husband put hot pepper rings and Sriracha on his, because he loves his spice.  But my 7 year old and I ate them as is, and were very happy. I hope you try these, because I think you too, will love them!

  6. I’ve only made cheesesteaks once but they really are so good! I’ve never had one in Philly either, but I’d probably prefer homemade anyway 🙂 Yours look great!
