Philly Cheese Steak Cheesy Bread

Instructions

1. Prepare the Bread Base:
   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
   • Slice the keto bread loaf in half lengthwise. Place on a baking sheet.
   • Brush the bread with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, oregano, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese.
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.
2. Prepare the Philly Cheese Steak Filling:
   • While the bread is baking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
   • Add the sliced onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
   • Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce if using.
3. Assemble the Dish:
   • Once the bread is done baking, remove it from the oven.
   • Spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly over the cheesy bread base.
   • Top with shredded provolone cheese.
   • Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
4. Serve:
   • Allow the cheesy bread to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
