Description
Low-carb, high-flavor twist on classic Philly cheesesteak with ground beef, sautéed onions and bell peppers wrapped in baked Monterey Jack cheese. Crisp edges with pliable soft cheese rolls perfect for keto lunches or quick dinners.
Ingredients
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
16 oz ground beef
½ medium onion, thinly sliced
1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
4 oz cream cheese
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat oven: Set to 350°F (177°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Cook filling: In a skillet over medium‑high heat, sauté ground beef with onion and bell pepper until beef is browned and vegetables are softened. Drain excess grease.
-
Add flavor: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, cream cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix until melted and fully incorporated. Set aside to cool slightly.
-
Make cheese wraps: On the prepared baking sheet, divide shredded Monterey Jack into 8 evenly spaced circles. Bake 8–10 minutes, or until edges are golden and cheese forms a flexible lace‑like round.
-
Assemble rolls: Let cheese circles cool for 1–2 minutes until just pliable. Spoon a portion of the beef mixture onto each cheese circle, then roll tightly to enclose filling.
-
Cool and serve: Allow rolls to firm up for a few minutes before serving warm.
Notes
Use freshly shredded cheese for better melt and flexibility.
Work quickly while cheese is warm to form perfect rolls.
Avoid overbaking; golden edges indicate readiness.
Store leftovers in fridge up to 2 days. Reheat gently.
Freezing is not recommended due to cheese texture changes.
