This Philly Cheese Dip Don’t Need No Steak

Let’s be honest: the beef is not the star of Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches. If it were, Chicken Cheesesteaks wouldn’t exist. When you order a Cheesesteak, what you’re really gunning for is the tangy combination of melted cheese, onions, and green peppers.

Thanks to this dip, adapted from Cooking for Keeps, you can share the mouthwatering cheesesteak experience with a crowd. Pair it with bread rounds, chips, or dipping vegetables, or go ahead and smear it on a sandwich or slider. If you manage to get away with leftovers, it could probably make an epic grilled cheese the next day.
