Philly Cheesesteak Squares
These Philly Cheesesteak Squares take all the classic cheesesteak flavors you love and wrap them up in buttery, golden crescent roll dough. Layers of tender deli roast beef, melty provolone, and sauteed peppers and onions are sandwiched between two sheets of crescent dough for one seriously delicious dinner. The garlic Dijon spread on the bottom adds a tangy kick that brings everything together. Slice them into squares and watch the whole family come back for seconds.
Yes! Thinly sliced deli turkey, ham, or even leftover steak would all work well in this recipe. Just make sure whatever meat you use is thinly sliced so it layers nicely.
Swiss cheese, pepper jack, or mozzarella would all be great substitutes. You could also use a combination for extra flavor.
Yes! Once fully cooled, wrap the squares tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350 F until warmed through.
