The smell of the peppers, onions, and cheese is simply intoxicating coming from the oven. I was asked by everyone what I was cooking.

Before you ask, check the freezer section of your grocery store for the shaved beef. You may find a different brand, but the packages are all very similar, and make making cheese steaks super easy!
I am taking the easy way out and used a disposable pan for these. (No clean-up). I cleaned and sliced the peppers in two and lined them with a slice of provolone cheese.
I then cooked the filling of onions, beef, and mushrooms and stuffed each pepper with as much as they could stand.
I topped each with another slice of Provolone cheese and placed them in a 400 F oven for 15 minutes, or until they came out golden delicious and bubbly.
You end up with this AMAZING cheese steaky goodness that you won’t want to share….so make extra.

Mmm, this looks delicious and easy enough for me to make! TFS.
Thanks for such an easy recipe. My family and I are low carb eaters and this is a fantastic philly substitute.
Amanda,
no need to parboil the peppers?
Tried these out tonight & they turned out great. I didn’t think the peppers would be cooked enough after 20 minutes, but they were just right.
this looks so good. i will have to make this for me and my husband. i would have to leave onions out for him though as he hates them! but everything else is perfect. what guy doesn’t like cheese and steak?
Looks delicious!
sounds yum! always looking for new meals for me and my boys, will have to give these a try
This looks so yummy. I am adding it to the menu plan for later in the month. Do you know if you ever run across coupons for the philly steak meat?
It has been awhile since I have seen a coupon, but occasionally some stores will mark them Buy One Get one
Made these tonight but used lunch meat roast beef. It was good!! But I think next time I will cook longer- 20 min wasn’t quote long enough to make the peppers soft.
