How to Serve Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups

These roll ups are best served fresh. Arrange them on a platter for a fun and appealing presentation. You can add some extra toppings like hot sauce, avocado, or more cheese for added flavor. They can also be served with a side salad for a complete meal.

How to Store Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups

If you have leftovers, you can store the meat mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. However, it’s best to keep the roll ups themselves unwrapped until you’re ready to eat them. You can also prepare the meat mixture ahead of time and make the roll ups when you are ready to serve.

Tips to Make Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups

  • Make sure not to overcook the bell peppers and onions; they should be tender but still have some crunch.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your taste. You can add other spices like paprika or chili powder for a little kick.
  • For added creaminess, consider mixing in cream cheese or a bit of sour cream with the meat mixture.

Variation

You can switch out the meat for a variety of options. Try shredded chicken or even a meat substitute for a vegetarian version. Adding mushrooms or other vegetables can also change the texture and flavor of the roll ups.

FAQs

Can I use other types of cheese?
Yes! You can use any cheese you like. Provolone or cheddar also work great in this recipe.

Are these roll ups suitable for meal prep?
Absolutely! You can prepare the meat mixture in advance and store it in the fridge, then make fresh roll ups on the day you plan to eat them.

Can I freeze the meat mixture?
Yes, you can freeze the cooked meat mixture in an airtight container. Thaw it in the refrigerator before using. However, it’s best to assemble the roll ups fresh.
