Few things feel as cozy as transforming a classic sandwich into a bubbling, oven-baked dish. This Philly Cheesesteak
Casserole brings together all the familiar flavors—savory
beef, tender peppers and onions,
creamy richness, and layers of melted cheese—into one satisfying meal that’s as comforting as it is flavorful.
