Are there times that you just think to yourself "these days are exhausting!" That's how I've been feeling lately. From a strong-willed 3 year old, our almost-crawling 7 month old, building a house, harvest on the farm, a busy time of year for bloggers, and just trying to keep up...life feels so hectic right now.
It's all good stuff, though. I feel so blessed to be building a house....raising our girls on the farm...blog for a living. And I know one day I'll look back and miss these hectic times. So I'm buckling up to enjoy the ride....the sleepless nights, baby giggles, late night tractor rides and every minute in between.
No matter how busy we are, I hope we always make time to gather around the dinner table. That's how I was raised and something that I hope we can always make a priority. And especially on those busy nights, quick meals like this One Pot Philly Cheesesteak Pasta is a no-brainer!!
Ingredients needed
- Butter and Vegetable Oil (this is what you'll cook the steak AND the veggies in)
- Steak (I used a boneless ribeye) OR ground beef
- Yellow Onion
- Green Bell Pepper
- Minced Garlic
- Beef Broth or Beef Stock
- Onion Soup Mix (or the Beefy Onion Soup Mix)
- Cellentini Pasta (bowtie pasta, shells, or elbow macaroni will work too!)
- Cream Cheese
- Provolone Cheese Slices
How do you make One Pot Philly Cheesesteak Pasta?
Gather your ingredients and grab either a large skillet or pot. Then turn some tunes on and let's get cookin'! (Tunes optional, yet highly recommended ;))
First, you'll sear the steak. (If you're using ground beef instead, go ahead and cook thoroughly.) Then, set the meat aside and cover with foil to keep warm.
Leave the remaining butter and oil in the pan and cook the veggies until they begin to soften.
Next, you'll add the broth, water, onion soup mix and pasta. Once the mixture is boiling, you'll cook for about 15 minutes, stirring on occasion until the pasta is soft. If there's still quite a bit of liquid in the pan, continue to cook until it's still juicy but not super watery.
Then stir in the cream cheese and meat. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and evenly distributed. Lastly, top with the cheese slices and let it melt!! Serve warm, sprinkled with parsley, if desired!
Can I make this recipe gluten free?
With a couple modifications, yes. Simply replace the regular noodles for gluten free pasta and start with just 2 cups of water. (You can always add more if necessary!)
There's also gluten in the Lipton brand onion soup mix, so you'll either use a GF onion soup mix or simply omit. If you do omit the onion soup mix, I recommend adding ½ teaspoon onion powder and seasoning with salt and pepper to taste!

Family loves it. Making it again tonight but doubling the recipe. We bought 1/2 a cow last fall and I use the cuts that are either too small or that we really wouldn't eat (london broil)
Jason says
Could you add mushrooms? If so would that change the cooking time?
Kelsey says
Hi Jason! I've never added mushrooms, so I'm not 100% sure. I think it would be delicious though and can't imagine it would change the cooking time by much. If anything, it might increase the moisture level a bit, so maybe cut down on the water by 1/4 cup? Let me know if you give it a try! -Kelsey
