Easy Authentic Philly Cheese Steak
"Mu husband grew up in Reading, PA and Rochester, NY but now lives in Arizona with me. He is always complaining that nobody knows how to make a real cheese steak. However, I made this and he says "I hit it on the nose.""

It's not "authentic" unless you use the correct ingredients. Your ingredients are correct, except that you should use Provolone Cheese & not American. -
Superb! Used provolone of course. Took about 15 minutes in the oven to heat through. Will make again soon! I sauteed the peppers and onion for awhile in olive oil. Made them very sweet and tender. -
This was fantastic and super easy to make. We'll definitely be adding this to our list of quick meals to make. -
Delicious! Made these last night and they are great. Thank you for sharing. -
I thought this was great! Pretty dang close to the real thing! I used cheese whiz... that's how I order it from Pats in Philly. YUM!
