An extra recipe comin’ at you this week because of the BIG GAME this Sunday! Speaking of, are you ready for the big game? And more specifically, the FOOD SPREAD? I know my husband is! In all the years I’ve known the man, I’ve known that he is a BIG Eagles fan. The only Canadian I know that watches football as religiously as he watches ice hockey! So naturally, when his team made the Super Bowl, I had to throw something together in his honor. Seriously, he’s more excited about this Philly cheese steak dip than the goliath sized chocolate birthday cake I make him for his birthday every year. But then again, this cheesesteak dip has meat and cheese, and those are primarily the only two food groups that matter to most men; so really, I shouldn’t even be surprised at this point. 🤷🏻♀️
Just look at that ooey gooey cheese layer on top of this Philly cheese steak dip! I don’t think I’d be doing my job if I didn’t bring you food fit for the big game this Sunday. Especially one that hits the check mark of ‘easy to put together’ and ‘crowd pleaser.’ Done and done. Let’s also not ignore the fact that this is actually a Philly cheese steak that has been deconstructed. Meat and cheese and peppers and onions stuffed between two buns, I think not. It’s more like, thrown together into a dish and baked until the whole thing is bubbly and golden. And wouldja look at those cheese pulls? HAVE MERCY! Think about this for a second: it starts with deli-sliced roast beef (or leftover steak if you’ve got some on hand that you need to use up) a couple of blocks of cream cheese, a diced onion and bell pepper, shredded cheese, a little mayo and some seasonings. See what I mean when I say easy Philly cheese steak dip?
Let’s break down this simple cheese steak dip recipe:
Once you’ve mixed everything, just load it up into a cast-iron skillet or a baking dish, top it with a little more cheese so that you get a killer crust on top and pop it into the oven for about 20-25 minutes. Seriously, does a homemade Philly cheese steak dip get any easier than that? This should come as no shock but I’m planning on serving this dip for the big game myself, and everyone that’s heard about it is excited to try it! If you’re invited to a party, throwing one yourself, if you plan on catching just the halftime show, or if you’re going to skip it altogether and watch This Is Us after the game, you NEED THIS DIP IN YOUR LIFE. That is all.
If you’ve got leftover cooked steak, you can also use that in place of the sliced roast beef.Sometimes I’ll add a chopped jalapeno in with the bell pepper if I want the dip to have a little more heat!
