Notes
How to Store & Re-Heat
To store: Wrap the sandwich tightly in plastic or aluminum foil and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can also keep the sautéed beef and vegetables separately from the bread and cheese to prevent the bread from getting soggy.
To reheat: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and warm the bread and cheese on a baking sheet for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted. If the ingredients are separate, heat the beef and vegetables in a skillet over medium heat until warm. Add the beef and vegetables to the warmed bread and any condiments you like, and enjoy your delicious Philly Cheesesteak sandwich.
Make-Ahead
Philly Cheesesteaks can be made ahead of time using a few simple tips. You can prep the ingredients by slicing the beef and vegetables in advance and storing them in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 days. This can help save time when it comes to cooking. Alternatively, you can assemble the sandwiches ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 days. Be sure to wrap them tightly in plastic or aluminum foil to prevent the bread from drying.
