This low carb Philly CheeseSteak recipe takes just 15 minutes and is a scrumptious change up for those watching their carbs. (And those who aren't!)

I recently found myself with a nice piece of ‘planned over’ steak and a longing for a low carb Philly Cheesesteak.  This recipe is my solution.

When I went to the internet for a recipe I found many variations for a low carb Philly Cheesesteak casserole.  It looked good, but I wanted something fast and I wasn’t in the mood to carve up my pretty little piece of steak into chipped beef even though that is traditional.

I decided to slice the steak length-wise and simply ‘sandwich’ the usual veggies and cheese in between the steak slices.  The result was quick and I thought,  fabulous.

I sauteed onion, mushrooms and a little bell pepper in a bit of olive oil until they began to brown and get soft.

I piled up the veggies and placed cheese slices on top.  I would use a provolone slice usually, but I had a little French Swiss cheese at hand and it was wonderful.  I added the two steak slices, turned off the heat and put a lid on the pan.  I just wanted the cheese to melt and the steak to warm, but not truly cook any more.

After the cheese had melted I place the bottom half of the steak on a plate and smothered it with the vegetable – cheese mixture, added the top of the steak and crowned it with a few golden mushroom slices.

It was marvelous and took less than 15 minutes.  I can’t wait to do this again!  –Enjoy!
