Weight Watchers Philly Cheesesteak Casserole
Ingredients:
1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
6 ounces provolone cheese, sliced or shredded
4 large eggs
1 cup skim milk
1/2 cup fat-free half and half
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Optional: sliced mushrooms, sautéed
Instructions:
Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
If the steak isn’t already thinly sliced, place it in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up. Then slice into thin strips.
Cook Steak and Vegetables:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced steak and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove steak from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add onions, bell peppers, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce.
Combine Steak and Vegetables:
Return cooked steak to the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well. Add sautéed mushrooms if using.
Prepare Egg Mixture:
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, skim milk, fat-free half and half, and paprika.
Assemble and Bake:
Spread the steak and vegetable mixture evenly in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
Layer provolone cheese over the steak and vegetables.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set and the top is lightly browned.
Serve:
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot.
