Thinly slice 1 large yellow onion, 1 green bell pepper, and 8 oz cremini mushrooms. Also, ensure 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin or ribeye steak (or shaved beef) is ready. This initial prep is key for your Philly Cheesesteak Bowls - Easy Low Carb Dinner.
02 -
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned. Season with salt to taste. Remove from skillet and set aside.
03 -
Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the same skillet and increase heat to high. Add the 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin or ribeye steak. Season with 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and salt to taste. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through.
04 -
Return the cooked vegetables to the skillet with the steak. Stir to combine. Reduce heat to low. Place 6 slices provolone cheese (or 3/4 cup shredded provolone/mozzarella blend) evenly over the mixture. Cover the skillet for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and gooey, perfect for your Philly Cheesesteak Bowls - Easy Low Carb Dinner.

While the cheese melts, in a small bowl, whisk together 2 oz softened cream cheese and 1/4 cup low-sodium beef broth until smooth and creamy. This sauce will add an extra layer of richness to your bowls.

In a separate pan or microwave, cook 16 oz (4 cups) riced cauliflower according to package directions until tender. Season with a pinch of salt. Divide the cooked riced cauliflower evenly among 4 serving bowls, forming the low-carb foundation.
