Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll-Ups Recipe
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 10 minutes
- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Servings: 8 roll-ups
- Equipment Needed: Large baking sheet, parchment paper or silicone mat, skillet, spatula
Ingredients:
- 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 16 ounces ground beef
- 1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced (any color you like)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat & prep the cheese wraps: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place 8 small mounds (about 1/4 cup each) of shredded Monterey Jack cheese evenly spaced apart. Flatten them slightly into circles.
- Bake cheese into wraps: Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and lacy. The cheese should be bubbly and starting to crisp. Remove and let cool just 1-2 minutes—they should still be flexible enough to roll.
- Make the filling: While the cheese is baking, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, sliced onion, and bell pepper. Cook until the meat is browned and the veggies are soft. Drain excess grease.
- Add the creamy goodness: Reduce heat to low. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, cream cheese, and a little salt and pepper. Mix until the cream cheese is fully melted and the filling is creamy and well combined.
- Roll it up: Spoon a few tablespoons of the beef mixture onto each cheese round while they’re still warm and pliable. Carefully roll up each one. Let them sit for a few minutes to firm up.
- Serve and enjoy! These are delicious warm, but they also keep well for meal prep. Enjoy as-is or pair with a simple green salad.
Variations to Try:
- Swap ground beef for ground turkey or thin-sliced steak.
- Use provolone, mozzarella, or cheddar instead of Monterey Jack.
- Add sliced mushrooms for a more traditional Philly flavor.
- Toss in a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.
Pro Tips:
- Let the cheese cool just slightly before rolling—too hot, and it will fall apart; too cool, and it becomes brittle.
- A silicone baking mat works even better than parchment for cheese wraps.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet—the cheese needs room to spread.
- For extra crisp, place the finished roll-ups back in the oven for 2-3 minutes.
