Philadelphia’s famous cheese steaks sandwiches packed with chicken, bell peppers and provolone can now made at home in minutes! 
If living in Philadelphia for 2 years has taught me one thing, it’s how to make a tasty cheesesteak. Cheesesteaks are available pretty much everywhere you look in Philly. But now that I moved to DC, cheesesteaks aren’t as popular so I started making my own at home. Home-made cheesesteaks are a lot healthier and super easy to make too. 
You can use chicken or steak, cut into small strips. Next comes the onions and bell peppers. Bell peppers are completely optional but are highly recommended for the ultimate cheese-steak experience! To top it all off, comes the cheese. Now this is up for debate and everyone has a preference. Some people like to use pepper-jack or cheddar cheese but provolone cheese is the most authentic cheese for cheesesteaks, but hey, who am I to judge…
The most important thing is that you get a good melting cheese. I like to use Crystal Farms® Cheese because it melts very fast and becomes super gooey and cheesy, which is the key to a good cheesesteak. It’s also natural with few preservatives and is also gluten-free and lactose tolerant. You can find it in the refrigerated dairy section at your local Shoppers or ACME supermarkets depending on where you live.
