Finally, you’ll wrap it all up in a warm embrace of low-carb tortillas or cabbage leaves for a delightful, guilt-free treat.

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 lb ground beef

When to Enjoy It

These Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls make for a delightful family dinner, perfect for those colder nights when everyone craves comfort food. Pair them with a fresh green salad or some crispy veggies for a meal bursting with color and flavor. A chilled sparkling water or a warm cup of tea on the side enhances the cozy vibes, letting everyone unwind after a long day.

Keep It Fresh

To make the most of your Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. You can also freeze them for longer storage—simply wrap each roll in foil and place them in a freezer-safe bag. To reheat, just pop them in the oven at 350°F for about 25 minutes, or until they’re heated through and the cheese is bubbly again.

Betty’s Secrets

  • For extra flavor, sauté your onions until they caramelize slightly; this adds a touch of sweetness to the filling.
  • Don’t skip the garlic powder—it elevates the flavor profile beautifully and enhances that savory essence.
  • If you want a greater cheese pull, blend cheddar with provolone for a delightful melting experience.
  • Pretreat your filling with some Worcestershire sauce for an added depth that complements the beef.

Creative Twists

  • If you’d like a spicy kick, consider adding some diced jalapeños to the beef mixture for those who like a bit of heat.
  • For a seasonal spin, toss in some sautéed mushrooms or spinach in the filling when they’re available fresh.
  • You could even swap the green bell pepper for red or yellow for a sweeter taste, adding a splash of color to your dish.
