Philly Cheese Steak Bites
1 pound loaf frozen bread dough, thawed and partially raised
1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 small bell pepper, thinly sliced strips
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 pound deli roast beef, thin sliced, cut into julienne strips
Salt and pepper to taste
4 ounces provolone cheese, thinly sliced, cut into julienne strips
egg wash, optional*
8 ounces Cheez Whiz
ketchup and pickle spears, optional

Thaw and partially raise frozen bread dough according to package directions (alternate to
frozen bread – prepare one loaf of bread according to your favorite recipe).

Melt butter in skillet over medium heat, add sliced onions and bell peppers, sauté until
caramelized (about 6-9 minutes); add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute longer; add
strips of roast beef and cook 1-2 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-
stick spray.

Knead out excess air in bread dough, turn out on lightly floured surface and cut into 4
sections. Roll each piece into a 12×4 inch rectangle. Gently press one fourth the cooled
beef-onions-pepper mixture down the middle of each rectangle; top with provolone
cheese. Fold dough over filling, pinch edges together to seal and roll into a log. Allow logs
to rest 30 minutes. Cut each log into 4 to 5 bites; place bites on prepared baking sheet.
Brush tops with optional egg wash (see below). Bake 15-20 minutes or until tops are
browned.

Microwave Cheez Whiz according to package directions; serve Philly Bites with ketchup and
pickles, dipped in warm Cheez Whiz.
