This Keto Philly Cheesesteak Style Beef Skillet is a Delicious mix between Sloppy Joe’s and Philly Cheesesteak. It’s an Easy and Inexpensive Family Friendly Meal that can be thrown together in less than 30 minutes. The recipe uses Ground beef instead of more expensive Steak which is typically used in Philly Cheesesteak recipes. It can be served on it’s own or over a bed of Zucchini Noodles or Low Carb Bread.

Once the beef is fully cooked, remove from the pan and set aside until later. Slice up the onion and green pepper. Add 1 tbsp of the butter to the skillet with the beef drippings. Fry the onion and peppers until browned. (about 4 minutes) Then set aside with the cooked ground beef.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

This recipe for Philly Cheese Beef Skillet is kid approved, making it perfect for those busy work/school nights. It’s a nice chance up from spaghetti, which we seem to have weekly. I used ground beef to make this dish because I typically have ground beef on hand. If you have or would prefer to use steak, by all means do. You can also use whichever coloured peppers you prefer or even add in a few mushrooms. I like the flavour the provolone cheese adds, but shredded or sliced mozzarella would also do the trick.

Recipe Notes:

  • You can use shredded or sliced Mozzarella Cheese in place of the Provolone if desired.
  • If you don’t have an oven proof skillet, use a square baking dish instead.
  • The ground beef can be switched out for Sliced Beef Roast or Sliced Cooked Steak if preferred.
  • The recipe can be made “one pot style” instead of removing the beef from the pan, just add all the ingredients in along with it. Then let simmer until onions and pepper are cooked through. ( I cook the beef and onions separately because I like how the onion and peppers caramelize on their own)
