How to Make Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups Step by Step
Step 1: Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Cook the Beef and Vegetables
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef, sliced onion, and bell pepper.
Cook until the beef is fully browned and the vegetables become soft and tender.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet.
Step 3: Make the Creamy Filling
Stir Worcestershire sauce and cream cheese into the beef mixture.
Continue stirring until the cream cheese melts completely and coats the filling in a rich creamy sauce.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4: Create the Cheese Wraps
Place shredded Monterey Jack cheese onto the prepared baking sheet in 8 evenly sized circles.
Leave enough space between each circle so they do not spread together.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the edges become golden brown and the cheese develops a lace-like appearance.
Step 5: Fill and Roll
Allow the cheese circles to cool for 1 to 2 minutes until they are firm enough to handle but still flexible.
Spoon some of the cheesesteak filling onto each cheese round.
Carefully roll the cheese around the filling to form roll ups.
Let them cool slightly so the cheese firms up into a wrap shape.
Step 6: Serve Warm
Serve immediately while the filling is warm and creamy and the cheese wraps are crisp around the edges.
Expert Tips
- Do not overfill the cheese wraps or they may tear.
- Let the cheese cool slightly before rolling to avoid breaking.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal.
- Add mushrooms for extra cheesesteak flavor.
- Serve fresh for the crispiest texture.
How to Store and Reheat It
Store leftover roll ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat in the oven or air fryer to help the cheese crisp back up.
The microwave works too, though the wraps may soften slightly.
What to Serve With
These keto roll ups pair wonderfully with salads, roasted vegetables, cauliflower rice, or zucchini fries.
They also make a great appetizer for parties or game day spreads.
Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, though they are crispiest when freshly made.
Are these really keto-friendly?
Yes. They are very low in carbs and high in protein and fats, making them ideal for keto lifestyles.
Can I add mushrooms?
Absolutely. Mushrooms are a delicious addition to the filling.
