Nothing says comfort food like a casserole\u2014and this Philly cheesesteak casserole recipe is definitely comfort food. With macaroni, ground beef, peppers, onions, a provolone cheese topping and a creamy sauce that holds everything together, this recipe has all the great flavors of a Philly cheesesteak<\/a> transformed into one hearty make-ahead meal<\/a>. Prep the bake for busy evenings when you don’t have time to linger in the kitchen, or share it with a friend who needs some home-cooked comfort food<\/a>.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and set aside.<\/p>\n In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the ground beef, chopped peppers and onions. Cook for six to seven minutes, until no pink remains in the meat and the vegetables are tender.<\/p>\n Stir in the cooked pasta, broth, cream cheese, heavy cream, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then cook for three to four minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened.<\/p>\n Place the provolone cheese slices in an even layer over the macaroni mixture. Bake until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.<\/p>\n You can store your Philly cheesesteak casserole in an airtight container in the fridge. The flavors will keep developing as they sit, so the leftovers will be delicious.<\/p>\n This Philly steak casserole will last up to four days.<\/p>\n This Philly cheesesteak casserole is a lovely freezer casserole recipe<\/a>. Freeze it whole or in individual portions, and let it thaw overnight before reheating. You’ll end up thanking yourself on a busy night when you have a quick dinner already prepped!<\/p>\n This is a great dish to make ahead of time. Make it up to a day ahead and let the flavors marinate in the fridge until it’s time to bake and enjoy.<\/p>\n Reheat this recipe for Philly cheesesteak casserole in the oven at 375\u00b0 for around 10 minutes. You can also nuke a single portion in the microwave for a minute or two.<\/p>\n You can definitely use steak for this casserole. Try using thinly sliced sirloin steak as you would traditionally use on a Philly cheesesteak. Sear the slices in the pan until they brown, then remove the meat and cook the onion and peppers. Return the steak to the pan with the pasta and other ingredients in Step 3.<\/p>\n Philly cheesesteak casserole recipes can definitely be a meal on their own. But if you want some variety, this main would go great with light and fresh side dishes like roasted carrots<\/a>, steamed artichokes or asparagus, and a big green salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Make this Philly cheesesteak casserole to get all the great flavors of a cheesesteak mixed with macaroni and a creamy, cheesy
