This one-skillet dinner will have you drooling, I promise. Especially if you love cheesesteak! We substitute the ribeye for less expensive ground beef but feel free to use the traditional cut of meat as well. The ground beef is simmered with beef broth, onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, and seasoning.
We also added some cauliflower to round out the recipe. No side dishes necessary, this is really a one and done meal. The final touch is a layer of melted provolone cheese. Try not to fight over the cheese pulls as you plate this meal for your family!
