Forget the bread, because this casserole takes the classic experience and transforms it into a dinner masterpiece, perfect for satisfying your cravings without derailing your health goals.

Pillowy biscuits, pre-baked to golden perfection, form the base of this culinary adventure.

Kids will adore the fluffy biscuit “breading,” adults will swoon over the juicy steak and decadent sauce, and everyone will be begging for seconds.

So ditch the greasy takeout menus and the guilt-ridden indulgence. This Philly Steak Bubble Up is your golden ticket to enjoying the iconic flavors you love, in a healthier, family-friendly, and oh-so-satisfying way.

Ingredients you need to make Philly Steak Bubble Up: 

• 1(7.5 oz) package Pillsbury or Great Value biscuits- comes in a 4 Value pack
• 10 oz cooked, shredded top sirloin steak 
• 1 onion diced 
• 1 green pepper diced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic diced
• ½ tablespoon all purpose flour
• ⅔ cup low fat milk
• Dried oregano and parsley
• ⅔ cup light shredded mozzarella
• 2 tablespoons light ranch dressing

How to make Philly Steak Bubble Up (step by step): 

1. Preheat the oven to 350F, and spray a 9×13 casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Cut each of the 10 small biscuits into 6 pieces each and layer them on the bottom of the casserole dish. Pre-bake the biscuit dough for 20-25 minutes.
3. In a large frying pan, cook the diced peppers and onion using a little cooking spray for 10 minutes. 
4. In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the diced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add in the flour and mix well. Let it cook for 2 minutes – you should smell the flour start to turn brown. Add the milk and seasonings and stir often until the sauce thickens – about 8-10 minutes.
5. Once the veggies are sauteed, pour over top of the baked biscuit pieces. Then layer on the shredded steak. 
6. Drizzle the garlic cream sauce evenly over the biscuits and steak mixture. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top, cover with foil, and bake in the oven for 5-20 minutes, checking all biscuits are cooked. The time difference will depend on your oven. Since the steak is cooked, you’re just ensuring the cheese is melted and the biscuits are fully cooked. 
7. Drizzle with ranch dressing. Cut into 6 equal servings. Enjoy!

• Philly Steak Bubble Up keeps well in the fridge for up to seven days. It will also freeze well for up to three months.
