Serving Suggestions for Your Roll-Ups
To serve these delightful Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups, I like to plate them with a side of homemade low-carb dipping sauce, like a spicy mustard or creamy ranch. They also make a fantastic appetizer for game day or family movie night, ensuring everyone has something they crave!
Storing Your Keto Treats
If you happen to have any roll-ups left, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Just reheat them in the oven or microwave before serving again to regain that melty goodness.
Tips for Perfecting Your Roll-Ups
- Make sure not to overcook the cheese circles; you want them pliable enough to roll.
- Experiment with different proteins like chicken or sausage for a twist on the filling.
- Adjust the veggies to your liking; mushrooms or spinach could add extra flavor.
Fun Variations to Try
Feel free to swap out the Monterey Jack cheese for cheddar or provolone, depending on your preference! If you want to spice things up, add slices of jalapeño to the filling for a little kick.
