I have seen similar recipes but this particular recipe came from me
If you like Philly cheesesteak, and if you like macaroni and cheese you are going to LOVE this dish!
Here is what you are going to need
Ingredients/Shopping list:
- Box of Texas toast(you will only use 3 slices)(I used artisan bread and made my own)
- 1/2 green pepper
- 1/2 onion
- 2 steaks–Philly cheesesteak steak I use steak-umms but there are different brands steak umms you will need 2 steaks
- 1 cup of uncooked rotini
- 1/2 cup provolone shredded
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1 mini cube of Velveeta cheese
- 1/2 stick butter
- 1 tsp yellow mustard
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 garlic cloves
Directions
- Dice pepper and onions and mince garlic(you may also use dried garlic or garlic paste)
- Bring 4 cups water to boil add generous amount of salt
- Place rotini noodles in boiling water stir and cook on med/high heat until al dente
- In a medium skillet sauté green pepper, onion until caramelized and tender
- Remove veggies from skillet
- In same skillet cook steak crumbling as you cook(cook thorough no pink)
- Drain pasta and add veggies and steak toss to cover
Make cheese sauce
- In a nonstick saucepan melt butter and mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic 1/2 cup milk, salt and pepper
- Add all cheeses and stir constantly melting the cheese(the cheese is going to ball up, once you add milk it will begin to melt into liquid cheese sauce)
- You will want to add milk by 1/2 increments until you achieve the perfect mac n cheese consistency(not too thick… not to thin)
Put it together and bake
- Pour cheese over pasta and steak mixture… stir coating all pasta and steak
- Place in a greased 9×13 pan
- Cover with cheddar cheese
- Bake in preheated 350 oven for 15 minutes
- Bake until cheese is melted, bubbly and golden brown(you may want to broil to get a golden brown crust)
- Bake your Texas toast according to package directions
- Serve immediately in a bowl and garnish with a few green onions
There is something about eating a cheesy dish in a bowl, it just adds that sense of comfort and it makes it yummy, also it is easier to eat(I think so anyway) If you would rather eat on a plate go ahead this is just a personal preference 🙂
Enjoy
