• Philly Cheesesteak Pasta

    Creamy Philly Cheesesteak-Inspired Pasta Bake

    Ingredients:

    12 oz pasta (penne or rigatoni recommended)

    1 lb thinly sliced beef sirloin or ribeye

    1 tablespoon olive oil

    1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

    1 medium onion, thinly sliced

    2 cloves garlic, minced

    1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)

    1 cup shredded provolone cheese

    1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

    1/2 cup cream cheese

    1 cup heavy cream

    1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

    Salt and black pepper to taste

    Directions:

    Cook pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced beef and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes. Remove beef and set aside.

    In the same skillet, add bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms. Sauté until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, about 6-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.

    Reduce heat to medium. Stir in cream cheese, heavy cream, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth and creamy.

    Return beef to the skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss until everything is evenly coated with the creamy sauce.

    Transfer pasta mixture to a greased baking dish. Sprinkle shredded provolone and mozzarella evenly over the top.

    Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly with a slight golden crust.

    Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

  • Homemade Cream Cheese

    Silky Smooth Homemade Cream Cheese Made From Scratch

    Ingredients:

    4 cups whole milk

    2 cups heavy cream

    1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)

    3 tablespoons white vinegar or lemon juice

    Cheesecloth for straining

    Directions:

    In a large saucepan, combine the milk and heavy cream over medium heat. Stir occasionally and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer (do not boil).

    Once it reaches a simmer, add the vinegar or lemon juice slowly while stirring. You’ll see the curds start to separate from the whey.

    Continue to stir gently until curds fully form and the liquid becomes mostly clear.

    Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes to allow the curds to finish setting.

    Line a colander with cheesecloth and place it over a bowl. Pour the mixture through the cheesecloth to strain out the whey.

    Let it drain for about 15–20 minutes, or until desired thickness is reached. For thicker cream cheese, let it drain longer.

    Transfer the curds to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding salt if desired.

    Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

    Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cooking Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes
