PHILLY CHEESESTEAK SANDWICH

Philly Cheesesteak sandwich, made with warm soft bread, perfectly melted cheese sauce, and tender steak. Leftover, or freshly made steak work perfectly for this recipe. Super simple and quick for a great weeknight meal.

Homemade Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches are perfect for a weeknight meal. I mean, don’t you just love a great sandwich!? We certainly do, especially when it’s simple and filling.

This is the EASIEST Philly Cheesesteak recipe you may have ever found! All of the real Philly natives out there, don’t shun me, because nothing about this Philly Cheesesteak is authentic! Let’s just call it “a spin on the ol’ classic.” Although it’s not 100% authentic, I guarantee you it is absolutely delicious!

What you need for the Cheesesteak sandwich: 

• Leftover steak, or make the steak fresh. The idea is to use a very thin cut of meat though, (ribeye is the best because it comes out very tender EVERY time)!
• Velveeta cheese sauce, buy the sauce pre-made, or buy a small block of Velveeta and follow instructions to prepare a cheese sauce. It is very simple, just add milk!
• Bell peppers and onions. Of course you can get them fresh and slice them; but as you know, I’m all about making life easy. So I always keep a frozen pepper blend on hand! You can also add sauteed mushrooms (optional)
• Seasonings

The beautiful part about this recipe is that you can use leftover steak, or even chicken. The Velveeta cheese is the perfect pair to this sandwich, it creates that nice cheesy layer that every cheesesteak sandwich needs and deserves.

My local grocery stores sale these delicious loaves of bread, Cuban or Puerto Rican bread especially, for $1! Yes ONE dollar! It’s bananas, and I buy one almost everyday to go with dinner.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR…

And make this sandwich for dinner tonight! It is sure to make the whole family happy.
