Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups

Recipe by Evelyn Marcella Rivera

All the flavor of a Philly cheesesteak with zero bread — shaved beef, sautéed peppers and onions, wrapped in melted Monterey Jack cheese. Ready in 25 minutes, keto and low-carb friendly.


  • Total Time25 minutes
  • Yield4 servings (2 roll-ups each) 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 slices Monterey Jack cheese (about 200g total)
  • 1 lb shaved beef steak (450g)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp onion powder
  • salt and black pepper, to taste
  • creamy cheese sauce or keto dip, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Veggies Sauté the Veggies: Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. Cook the Steak Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, add the shaved beef. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through. Stir in the sautéed vegetables and remove from heat.
  3. Melt the Cheese Melt the Cheese: In a clean non-stick skillet over low-medium heat, place 4 slices of Monterey Jack cheese with space between each. Heat until the cheese melts and the edges bubble slightly, about 2 to 3 minutes. Work in two batches.
  4. Fill and Roll Fill and Roll: Spoon a few tablespoons of the beef and veggie mixture into the center of each melted cheese slice. Use a spatula to gently lift and roll the cheese around the filling. Place seam-side down on parchment paper and let rest for 1 to 2 minutes to hold their shape.
  5. Serve Serve: Serve warm with a creamy cheese sauce or keto dip if desired. Best eaten hot, right from the pan.

Notes

Work in batches of 4 cheese slices at a time — cheese cools and sets fast, so roll immediately after melting. Use a thin, wide spatula to lift the cheese cleanly without tearing. Provolone can be substituted for Monterey Jack. Shaved ribeye or shaved sirloin both work well. Leftovers store in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat in a skillet over low heat rather than the microwave to avoid rubbery cheese.
