This step ensures your rolls bake evenly. Next, gather your ingredients. You’ll need flank steak, bell peppers, onions, and spices. Don't forget the cream cheese and provolone for that cheesy goodness. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once hot, toss in sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté them for 5-7 minutes until they soften and caramelize. Remove them from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the thinly sliced flank steak. Season it with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the steak is brown, about 4-5 minutes. Then, remove the steak from heat. In a large bowl, mix softened cream cheese and shredded provolone until smooth. Add the cooked steak, onions, and peppers. Stir gently to combine. In another bowl, mix almond flour, coconut flour, and a beaten egg until you form a dough. Spread almond flour on parchment paper and roll out the dough into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick. Cut the dough into 4x4 inch squares. Place a spoonful of the steak and cheese mix in the center of each square. Roll the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal. Place the rolls seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Let them cool slightly before serving for the best taste. When making Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls, avoid overcooking the steak. It can become tough and chewy. Cook it just until browned. Also, be careful not to skip the step of letting the cream cheese soften. This makes mixing easier. If your dough is too thick, your rolls may not cook evenly. Roll it out thin for the best result. For a dairy-free option, you can swap cream cheese with cashew cream. Use nutritional yeast instead of provolone cheese for a cheesy flavor. If you don't have almond flour, coconut flour works too, but use less since it absorbs more moisture. Always check labels for hidden carbs in substitutes. To get the best rolls, make sure your filling is cool before you wrap it. This helps the dough hold its shape. Use a generous spoonful of the filling, but don’t overstuff. Pinch the edges tightly to seal them well. This keeps the filling from escaping while baking. Pro Tips Slice Against the Grain: Always slice the flank steak against the grain to ensure tenderness in each bite. Mixing Cheeses: For a richer flavor, consider mixing different types of cheese, such as mozzarella with provolone. Prevent Sticking: When rolling out the dough, use parchment paper and sprinkle with almond flour to prevent it from sticking. Cool Before Serving: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving to enhance the flavors and make them easier to handle. {{image_4}} You can enhance your Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls with tasty dipping sauces. Here are a few ideas: - Sugar-Free Marinara: A classic choice that pairs well with the rolls. It adds a nice tang. - Creamy Ranch: Mix mayo, sour cream, and ranch seasoning for a cool dip. - Cheese Sauce: Melted cheddar or a mix of cheeses can make a rich and creamy dip. These sauces add flavor and keep your meal fun! You can switch up the meat in your rolls for new tastes. Consider these options: - Chicken: Use thinly sliced chicken breast. It cooks fast and stays juicy. - Pork: Thin pork loin adds a nice sweetness and pairs well with the cheeses. - Turkey: Ground turkey is a great lean option. Season it well for the best flavor. Feel free to experiment with your favorite meats! If you want a meat-free version, there are great options for you. - Mushrooms: Use portobello or cremini mushrooms. They add a nice meaty texture. - Tofu: Firm tofu works well. Season and sauté it for flavor. - Eggplant: Thinly sliced eggplant can be a hearty filling. Grill or roast it first.

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the rolls.
  • In a skillet heated over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sautéing them until they become soft and slightly caramelized, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Once done, remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same hot skillet, add the thinly sliced flank steak. Season it generously with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Cook the steak until it is browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Then, remove from heat.

Add the cooked flank steak, sautéed onions, and bell peppers to the cream mixture. Stir everything together gently until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and beaten egg. Mix it well until a cohesive dough forms.
  • Place a sheet of parchment paper on your work surface and sprinkle it with a bit of almond flour to prevent sticking. Roll out the dough into a thin rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
  • Cut the rolled dough into 4x4 inch squares. Take a generous spoonful of the steak and cheese mixture and place it in the center of each square.
