What You Need To Make This Baked Philly Cheesesteak Recipe?

Green Bell Peppers: Thinly slice – the peppers to add a crispness that perfectly complements the texture of the ground beef.
Seasoned Salt: This ingredient brings forth a depth of flavor but feel free to adjust the amount based on your personal taste preferences or even experiment with your preferred seasoning blend.
Provolone Cheese: To capture that Philly flavor Provolone cheese is ideal. However, if you fancy something else go ahead. Try Swiss or Cheddar cheese instead.
Garlic: Minced garlic adds a burst of flavor that takes the dish to another level. So make sure not to skimp on this one!
Eggs, Worcestershire Sauce, and Heavy Whipping Cream: These ingredients work together harmoniously to create a creamy texture that binds all the flavors together. Ensure that you whisk the cream properly with the eggs for a consistently velvety finish.

This was a pretty good and easy recipe. I did add mushrooms with the veggies and used mozzarella since I didn’t have provolone, but otherwise followed the recipe until serving. We like spice so I added some jalapeños, which made the meal even better for us. Thanks for sharing!
