Description
A delicious and hearty One-Pot Philly Cheesesteak Soup with Bacon, served with cheesy toast, perfect for a comforting meal.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- 4 slices of sourdough bread
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, red and green bell peppers, and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and ground beef to the pot. Cook until the beef is browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
- Stir in the cream cheese until melted and well combined. Add the provolone cheese and mix until the soup is creamy and cheesy.
- While the soup is simmering, preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the sourdough bread on a baking sheet and top each slice with mozzarella cheese. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Serve the soup hot, topped with crumbled bacon and chopped parsley, alongside the cheesy toast.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the soup.
- Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option, and use low-fat cream cheese to reduce calories.
