Philly Cheesesteak Pasta
This easy dinner recipe for Philly Cheesesteak Pasta is a cheesy comfort food dish that will become a new family favorite!
If you thought my Philly Cheesesteak Baked Egg Rolls were good, you are in for a treat today. So, things have been a little bit crazy around here. Time is flying by with a newborn baby and I can’t believe it’s August already! I have to admit that I haven’t been cooking a lot lately. Mr. Wishes has been saving our dinners with grilling out – I guess that’s a perk to having a new baby in the summer! This Philly Cheesesteak Pasta is one those meals I dream of having again soon.
My poor baby Eliza got diagnosed with a dairy allergy a couple of weeks ago so I won’t be enjoying this Philly cheesesteak pasta anytime soon, but I can guarantee it will be one of the first meals I make when she outgrows the allergy, along with my Sloppy Joe Macaroni and Cheese! A meal loaded with pasta and cheese is the greatest that it gets.
A cheesesteak, also known as a Philadelphia cheesesteak, Philly cheesesteak, cheesesteak sandwich, cheese steak, or steak and cheese, is a sandwich made from thinly sliced pieces of beefsteak and melted cheese in a long hoagie roll. I have made Philly Cheesesteak Dip in the past When I saw it in pasta form I had to make it! I first saw this meal on my friend Lisa’s Instagram page (Wine and Glue blog). I immediately took a screenshot of it so that I remembered to make it. I rarely see a photo of food and immediately think to myself that I NEED to make it ASAP but it definitely happened. It took me about two days to go to the store to get the ingredients to make it. It did not disappoint, let me tell you! I mean, just looking at the photos makes it obvious that is one is going to be a keeper for years to come. I also have my eye on this Philly Cheese Steak Hasselback Chicken from my friend Amy. Delicious!
If you’re into the cheesy pasta dishes that only use ONE pot, this One Pot Chili Mac and Cheese is one that has made it to the top of my list. Also, if you haven’t had my Homemade Hamburger Helper, it’s time to change that.
