Tips & Variations

• Use provolone or mozzarella cheese depending on your preference for flavor and meltiness.
• Add sliced mushrooms or jalapeños when sautéing veggies for extra flavor and heat.
• For a spicier kick, sprinkle chili flakes over the meat before assembling.
• To make it easier to serve, slice the bread before topping and then assemble on a baking sheet.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes to maintain crispness and melty cheese. Microwaving may cause the bread to become soggy.

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use fresh garlic bread instead of frozen?

Yes, fresh garlic bread works well. Just adjust the initial baking time according to your bread’s needs before adding the toppings.

Is Philly cheesesteak meat different from regular ground beef?

Philly cheesesteak meat is usually thinly sliced steak, but ground beef or thinly sliced roast beef can be used as substitutes if you can’t find traditional cheesesteak meat.

Instructions
