Nutritional Benefits of Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls
These rolls are packed with protein from the steak and cheese, which is fantastic for keeping you full and satisfied. You also get beneficial fats, which are essential for a keto lifestyle. Plus, by using veggies like bell peppers and onions, you’re adding vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants into your meal. Can we say balanced meal? Yes, please!
Adaptable Variations
- Switch Up the Protein: You can swap out the steak for chicken or even turkey if you prefer! Plenty of options to keep things fresh.
- Go Vegetarian: Try using sautéed mushrooms for a meaty texture that still keeps the flavors classic and satisfying.
- Add Your Favorite Cheese: While provolone and cheddar are traditional, feel free to experiment with gouda or pepper jack for a kick of spice!
Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye steak
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers (you can mix colors!)
- 1/2 cup sliced onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese (or cheese of choice)
- 4 large lettuce leaves (like romaine or iceberg) for wrapping
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sautéing until they’re soft—about 5 minutes.
- Throw in the sliced ribeye steak and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the steak is browned and cooked through, about another 5-7 minutes.
- Once the steak is done, lower the heat and sprinkle shredded cheese over the meat and veggies. Cover the skillet for a couple of minutes until the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Using the lettuce leaves, spoon the steak and cheese mixture into the center, roll them up, and secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, low-carb dinner!
Practical & Valuable Tips
- For a little crunch, try adding sliced jalapeños or pickles into the roll!
- If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
- Don’t have ribeye? Flank steak works beautifully too—just slice it thinly against the grain for the best texture.
