What You Need To Make Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Mushrooms
- Sharp knife – do yourself a favor and invest in good quality knives. These Henckels are my favorite, even when working as a chef I used these solid knives
- Cutting board – wood looks nice but it’s not especially sanitary. Use cutting boards that can be disinfected and even put in the dishwasher
- Mixing bowl – another must have in any keto kitchen are good, stainless steel mixing bowls, and these stackable ones are my favorite
- Sheet pan – different from a cookie pan, sheet pans have raised sides to keep liquids from spilling over. Buy good quality commercial-grade pans and you’ll never have to replace them.
- Skillet – I love love my non-stick skillet with a good lid. I use it again and again. Invest in a good one like this!

Chef Jenn’s Tips
- Steak-Umms and other cheesesteak beef can have a fair bit of water content added to it. Be sure to drain this water from the pan before you add the cream cheese.
- Chop your onion and bell pepper pretty small so it all fits into the mushroom cap.
- You can change up the mushrooms – try this recipe with cremini mushrooms or jumbo portobellos
- Add a bit of red pepper flakes if you like it spicy!
When To Serve These keto Stuffed Mushrooms
These Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Mushroom Caps are the perfect game-day snack, but they’re also terrific anytime you need something to munch on.
From potlucks to gatherings of all kinds, put out a tray of these bite-sized morsels of goodness and watch them disappear!
Are Stuffed Mushrooms Freezer Friendly?
Yes! Of course they’ll never be quite as good as they are fresh, but these keto appetizers will freeze just fine.
Freeze them on a sheet pan until frozen, then pop them into a freezer-safe plastic zipper top bag.
They’ll stay fine for about three months in the freezer.
Thaw them in the fridge until thawed, then heat them in the oven or the microwave until warmed through.
Yes! Double yes! Mushrooms are perfect for a keto diet. Not only are they loaded with plenty of nutrients, they are low in carbs and have a bit of fiber, too.
Of course it varies by recipe, but in this recipe you’ll find about XX net carbs per serving. The serving size depends on how big your mushrooms are.
I wash the mushrooms to remove all the growing medium that’s left behind. You can also just use a soft brush to brush them off, but water won’t hurt them.
