Dot, with the virus and all and all of us staying home, we use your recipes as our keto-comfort food! So far this week we made the Pizza casserole and today we'll make this. We have made them before. We enjoy your Bacon Cheeseburger casserole, your cauliflower mash recipe, your keto fries, and best of all we think - your Faux-tato beef stew. Thanks so much for your wel thought out and very tasty recipes
my husband and I just started our meal prep for our first week of low carb. We made this and the saucy meatloaf as our choices for the week. This was our choice for tonights dinner and its fantastic!!! Thanks so much for being real and being you!
Dot. You make me so happy. I want you to know that I have been making your recipes well ahead of time and freezing portions. I have completely learned to “make ahead” and it has made all the difference in the world. You have really impacted my life my dear. Thank you so so much. I am a true keto body type and your recipes make me so happy.
I made this last night. All I can say is that I don't think I was even living until I had this! Hubby was crazy about it too-so crazy that he said he wants this as his birthday dinner. I made it exactly as directed except that I used olive oil and butter instead of the other oils/fats. I also used sharp yellow cheddar because I didn't have white. Oh wow, people you have GOT to make this, it is to die for!!!!
Hi dot I made this tonight I'm in the uk and never tasted this before and it was amazing I'm sure I will be making this again thank you for all your tutorials hope your mum and yourself are doing well xx
I loved watching Dot to Trots videos and have helped me a lot on my keto journey. I’ve not seen any videos in quite some time and I’m sure the pandemic has had a major part to play. I sure hope all is well with your family and hope to see future cooking videos sometime soon. 💜
This is right on time cause just a couple of weeks ago, I was on you tube and Pinterest looking for a Keto Philly steak & cheese casserole. I was going to make one from The Philly steak sheets (used to be steakums) since they are 100% beef but I decided not to make it since it would take too many. Your casserole looks super YUMMY though, so it looks like I've found my recipe or it found me. Thanks Dot!
We're like two ships colliding -- and the sound you hear is "yum!" Hope you love this one as much as I did. Also, very encouraged that people are looking for recipes like this. I always wonder...
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living Definitely! It's based on a favorite so how can you go wrong?! So many people love that sandwich (including me) and the filling is the best part.
Not only did my family LOVE this casserole, the cheese sauce is now my go-to recipe to serve over vegetables and as queso dip with veggies as a snack. Thanks for solving 2 of my problems (low carb recipes my family likes AND something low carb to serve them while they watch sports on TV.) with one dish.
Ms. Dot, I am going to start picking and using your meal ideas to stay fresh in Keto. I had a major slip for 3 days, and I felt horrible too, my stomach has been upset for days because I ate non - keto foods. I didn't prepare myself, and last week was very challenging too, so it showed, and I retreated back to some of my old ways. I have come so far in 2 months time, I refuse to go back to the way I ate before. It wild when you slip up, how you feel like you've committed a sin...crazy...but that's how I felt. Thank you for all you do with these food videos, they are going to be major blessings to me soon!
I'm with you! Screwed up major over Holidays. Back on track 6 days. You git got support, I know how you feel. The bubble guts after cheating , especially with ice cream and cake, is real! Trying this recipe and if you want, will keep you posted.
I am so glad I found your channel. I made this cheese steak last night and it was a huge hit. I also made your pizza (twice this past weekend) and loved it! I can't wait to try your other recipes! I am excited about cooking again. Thank you.
It looks wonderful as all your recipes do. I might have to cut back on the amount of cheese a bit for too much does tend to bother me but I know my hubby would love this. I have my first painting class of 10 women coming up sat may 12,,so I'll let ya know which one of your recipes I'm going to make. Casseroles are some of the easiest and most favorite dishes to serve along with homemade soups. I will probably make one low carb dish and one regular for my ladies,same with dessert. But thanks again for all you do. Plan on going out this afternoon and I'm going to look for your magazine!!!
I love casseroles because it's easy to portion out, and there are so many varieties. Painting class: that's awesome! You always seem so positive :) Magazine ... omg, it feels a little weird, haha. Cheers.
I made this for lunch today, and it was pretty good. I will make it again, but with a couple of modifications. I will thin the sauce out a bit with a small amount of beef broth (the sauce as is was just a little too rich for our palates), and I will leave off the provolone topping.
I know how you feel. I always feel like I should pay a discount because "no bread," but try explaining that to someone (lol). Hope you like it :) If you're like me, you will.
Gail Blain Peterson that sounds great too! I make mine in a green pepper half. You just load up with the meat onion and place cheese on top..(everything is already cooked) then place in oven to melt the cheese.
Oh those are super good too. I made them a long time ago when Kyndra Holley first had them on her blog. When our garden peppers are overflowing I will have to do them again. Thanks for the reminder :)
You are welcome. I have to laugh because they are extremely low carb and my husband who's a notorious carbaholic, and resists all forms of vegrables, loves them.
Hey there! I just made this today and oh my gosh .. it is amazing 😉 it is so delicious 🤤 thank you for sharing this with us! You have some great recipes! I used white cheddar and Swiss and also Parmesan.. then topped with provolone
I think I may try this by grilling the meat and veggies, then slicing it all and add everything to the casserole dish and cover with the cheese sauce. The one thing I learned about cooking keto is the less steps and dishes the easier it is for me to stick to it. But your end product looks yum!
Agreed, less is definitely easier to stick with. What I try to do is give a range (across my various vids) and hopefully people can find something they can live with, and maybe do something fancy once in a while. :)
Can't wait to give this a try!!! I've ordered Philly Cheesesteak and left off the roll, but I still hated the fact that they cooked up everything in canola oil... I've never used duck fat, but have heard great things about it.
Wow, wow, wow! I'm hungry and this looks SOOO tasty. My husband has been telling me to "add more cheese" for years and you sure did this time! I love your channel, but haven't actually made any of your recipes (yet); I will make this ASAP. I feed my family of 6 and get sad when I have to cook my low carb dinner after everyone else's, so I love your casserole ideas. I'm slowly heading for a time when we ALL eat lower carb foods. Thank you!
Hello! New subscriber here! I love your channel. It is just what I need to help me get started on my low carb journey. I have decided to make this dish as my first low carb meal. Thanks you for helping me and your other subcribers on our journey to a healthier lifestyle!
Joanne, I'm going to try this! Before Keto I put onion in just about everything. Now, I'm cautious, but I miss it some days. I also think I could benefit from a little meal prep, so 2 birds 1 stone. Thanks!
Yet ANOTHER one of your casseroles I will be making (with some minor tweaks) being from Jersey and all. What's a cheesesteak without pepperoncini...😁 I have that same apron; for about 25 years now. 😊
I made this today and it is delicious. When I make it again, I will buy the veggies sliced and, if I can, even buy the beef already sliced. The recipe requires a lot of prep work and if there is one thing I hate, it's slicing and dicing. I also made way too much cheese sauce so the dish turned out rather soupy. I will cut down on the sauce.next time. This is one tasty dish. The recipe makes a lot, so after all the work, I'm going to enjoy serving after serving ....
I wish the Food Netwook (or someone) would give you your own show. I love watching you cook. And while I'm eating low carb, my Mister is not, but we often find dishes we can both enjoy.
Oh man that looks so good! Love your videos, so clear and perfect! Was wondering if you have done any PSMF days/meals? Have you heard of protein sparing bread Dot? I’ve just learned of it?
I’ve made your pizza casserole that’s a great recipe btw thank you for that I made it right after I watched it and I’m going to give this one a try this weekend :)
Tim -- I just updated my "amazon store" in with the exact grinders I use (got them for xmas). You can find the link to the store in the video description near the top. Yes, I get a small commission (but you pay the same price). But there are lots of different grinders out there. These work great though.
Can this be fully put together and then frozen to make a weeknight dinner easier? I have two kids, 3 & 5, and work full time, so I'm looking for keto recipes that I can put together on the weekend that will feed us for the week. Thanks!!! Love the videos and recipes. Can't wait to try this one and the pizza casserole.
LOL I bet your hubby was drooling at the mouth to get dug in to that dish. Looks lovely and my man would love it. Can I ask if you eat any type of bread or would you say it was a no no when trying to lose weight.
In my normal day-to-day I eat practically no types of bread. Occasionally I experiment, or make something for others and then have a little (oopsie bread, for example). And of course I make stuff for the channel, and I eat that -- not bread, per se, but treats like the cheesecake. Husband: he ate 2 helpings (against my wishes) :)
Oh my that looks great!! Me and my husband are totally gonna try this!!! I got one question tho..... Where did you get your salt and pepper grinders?? 😁
Marie, I literally just updated my "Essential Kitchen Tools And Books For Low Carb Living" link (in the video description) with these grinders. They are the first entry. Note: I get a commission from Amazon if you click the link, but it doesn't add to your price. Just a disclaimer haha. My husband got me these for xmas. They work great. Cheers.
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living why thank you for responding! So I took a look and told my hubby, so looks like Im getting new salt and pepper grinders.... Thanx again! 😁
OMG!! YOU are my hero! First of all.....BIG congratulations, on your weight loss!!!! Your recipes are great and I'm so blessed, to find a down to earth sister in KETO! Thank you!!!! ♥️
All keto is low carb, but not all low carb is keto. Keto is generally eating 20g of carbs a day, or less. Above that would be 'moderate' low carb and then 'liberal' low carb. All are way better than pounding down a bowl of pasta and washing it down with a Coke (hehe). Welcome to the journey!
2 questions, first can you freeze this in individual servings to eat later and second can you jar and freeze just the cheese sauce? Love the looks of this can not wait to do this. Going to make this post sleeve diet much better.
Yes you can freeze the sauce for later. Just thaw it in the refrigerator. As for freezing individual servings, you can, but I normally under cook the veggies a bit. I find they take to freezing better that way and won't disintegrate when you thaw/heat up. Let me know how it turns out for you.
You can get them here (scroll down a teensy bit). It's my Amazon store -- and disclaimer: I get a small commission. But YOU don't pay anything extra. Husband got the grinders for xmas :) www.amazon.com/shop/dot2trotslowcarbliving
I tried this and it was absolutely delicious. Thanks so much. Is there a place I can copy and paste the recipe from? I tried from you tube and it wouldn’t let me. I want to save it on my phone to use again.
Not sure how to copy/save it with a phone, but from a desktop computer, you should be able to go right to the video description and copy/paste the normal way. I'll paste it here though so you get it in your email (if you've set up replies to comments to go to email). Very happy you liked the recipe: Philly Cheesesteak Casserole: Servings: 6-8 The carb count and nutrition data below is based on serving size of 6. Since the cheese sauce is optional, I include those numbers separately. ✅Cheesesteak Nutrition, WITHOUT Cheese Sauce: Total Carbs/Serving 6.3g Total Net Carbs/Serving: 4.7 Nutrition: 558 Calories/32.6g Protein/46.4g Fat/5.7g Carbs/1.7g Fiber ✅Cheese Sauce Nutrition: Total Carbs/Serving: 1.6g Total Net Carbs/Serving: 1.5g Nutrition: 301 Calories/11.2g Protein/28g Fat/1.6g Carbs/0.1g Fiber 🔔Note: Traditionally Philly Cheesesteaks are made with thinly cut rib-eye steaks. However, they can be costly. Good alternatives include top sirloin or skirt steaks. For those of you on a tight budget, ground beef can be used as well, just make sure it is well drained after you brown it. ◾Cheese Sauce Ingredients: ¾ C Heavy cream 2 C cheddar cheese, grated ¼ C Grated Parmesan Cheese 2 tbsp. butter, unsalted and cubed ¼ tsp. Himalayan salt or sea salt 1/8 tsp. Black pepper ½ tsp. Paprika (optional) ◾Philly Cheesesteak Ingredients: 2 lbs. Steak (rib-eye, top sirloin, skirt) 1 tbsp. Ghee or tallow 1 Small onion, thinly sliced Kosher salt 2½ tbsp. Duck fat, divided (can also use ghee, butter or light olive oil) 1 tbsp. Butter, unsalted 2 C White button Mushrooms, sliced 1 Medium green pepper, thinly sliced 1 Medium red pepper, thinly sliced 1 Small orange pepper, thinly sliced Sea salt Fresh cracked black pepper 1 Batch of cheese sauce (optional) 10 Pepperoncini peppers, sliced (optional) 4 oz. Provolone or Swiss cheese ✅Directions 1. Place steaks in freezer bag and place in freezer for 30-45 minutes to make the steaks easier to cut into thin slices. 2. While steaks are freezing, begin shredding the cheddar and Parmesan cheese for the cheese sauce, and slicing your onion, peppers and mushrooms. 3. Remove steaks from freezer and slice into thin strips. Place in a bowl and season with sea salt and pepper. Set aside. 4. Preheat oven to 350; lightly grease a casserole dish and set aside. 5. If making cheese sauce, pour cream into small saucepan over medium low heat. Once cream is warm, add ¼ cup of cheese to the cream at a time, stirring until melted before adding in more cheese. Stir in butter and season with Himalayan salt and pepper. Turn off burner but keep pan on stovetop near the oven heat source to keep warm. Stir occasionally to prevent a thin skin forming on top of sauce. 6. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp. of ghee or beef tallow over high heat. Once fat is sizzling, working in batches, add in steak; cook for 1 minute on each side. Next, place meat on cutting board and chop into smaller, bite-size pieces; place steak in a large, clean mixing bowl and set aside. 7. Wipe the skillet clean with a paper cloth (careful as it is hot!) and heat ½ tbsp. of duck fat and 1 tbsp. of butter over medium heat until sizzling. Add in onions and stir to coat with the fat. Continue stirring until onions are soft; season with a pinch or 2 of kosher salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook onions, stirring every 1-minute to prevent them from sticking or coloring too much. Onions are finished when blonde-colored, about 10 minutes. Place onions in bowl with steak. 8. Wipe skillet clean and heat 1 tbsp. of duck fat over medium heat until sizzling. Add in mushrooms, stirring to coat them with the fat; sprinkle a pinch of kosher salt over mushrooms. Stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release water. Turn heat to medium low and let water evaporate. Once water evaporates, cook mushrooms for 1-2 minutes more to brown. Place in bowl with steak and onions. 9. Next, heat 1 tbsp. of duck fat in skillet over medium heat until sizzling. Add in peppers, season with salt and, stirring occasionally, cook until softened. If desired, place peppers on cutting board and chop into small bite size pieces. Place in bowl with steak, onions and mushrooms. 10. Add cheese sauce to bowl and stir to combine all ingredients. Pour mixture into casserole dish. Top with chopped pepperoncini, if using, and provolone cheese. Bake until cheese has melted, about 10-15 minutes. After cheese has melted, you can broil for about 5 minutes to brown if desired.
Thanks so much. I have struggled with weight a long time. I have beat cancer 3 times and still get up every morning ready to take on the day. Watching your video about your health really hit home. Thanks for your recipes. I don’t have time a lot of days to get on the Internet but would of be to get a cookbook if you have one out there. Thanks again. I weigh 298 and want to get to 150. My journey has begun.
I'm new to Keto and recently discovered your channel. You present delicious and easy meals , which I appreciate. Special request - I don't drink coffee, but is there any chance someone has a similar bullet proof recipe for tea or hot chocolate drinkers? I'd love to be able to take advantage of the benefits of bullet proof, but I can't stand coffee!
Bullet tea is a real thing! You can pretty much use the bullet proof coffee recipe with tea. You may want to experiment with type of tea to see works the best for you. I've used green, black and oolong teas. So for 8 oz of hot tea, blend in 1 tbsp of coconut oil, 1 tbsp of butter and blend. You can also add 1 tsp. of MCT oil too (i usually reduce the coconut oil by 1 teaspoon if I use MCT). Some people may use coconut milk with coconut oil if they want to keep it dairy free.
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living I see that you chopped it up in the end so it looks beautiful. I love watching your videos. I lost 120 lbs and stopped taking all but one of my medications because of keto. Your channel has been a go to for me.
nom nom....gonna make this and put a stripe of marinara on top after it's finished. For those can't drop $25 on two beautiful ribeyes you could definitely use SteakUms. That's the only brand I feel is worthy of a cheese steak and I've tried all the rest. I'm from the Philly area so cheese steaks were their own food group growing up :-)
These are "sur la table" pans, and I bought them out of their store in Virginia. I'm sure you can get them online though (because it's 2018 lol). I love them too -- very nice, and seem to last longer than teflon. Cheers.
Heya Holly. Glad you're liking the vids... My husband purchased them on Amazon. We have them in our store there, along with all the other stuff we use (down the page a bit): www.amazon.com/ideas/amzn1.account.AE5TTIND3GLH5GHGBFQIWMIIANOA/KD2E97RSLD1Q
There are some apps out there, but I don't really use them (anymore). My Fitness Pal wasn't bad, but they had some annoying features. I just sorta keep a running tab in my head at the moment. That could change in the future. I don't count calories at all, though.
I get mine from fat works (fatworksfoods.com). Can also get their fats from Amazon (as well as other brands, but haven't tried those). If you don't want to use duck fat, you can stick with ghee or lard (for example).
You posted this today. I commented earlier and said how great it looked. Well, we made it tonight and it was OUTSTANDING!!!!
Wow, that was fast! Super happy you liked it. Thank you for letting me know :)
I believe, want to make!!
123holdon1 good to know👍
Dot, with the virus and all and all of us staying home, we use your recipes as our keto-comfort food! So far this week we made the Pizza casserole and today we'll make this. We have made them before. We enjoy your Bacon Cheeseburger casserole, your cauliflower mash recipe, your keto fries, and best of all we think - your Faux-tato beef stew. Thanks so much for your wel thought out and very tasty recipes
my husband and I just started our meal prep for our first week of low carb. We made this and the saucy meatloaf as our choices for the week. This was our choice for tonights dinner and its fantastic!!! Thanks so much for being real and being you!
I'm so happy you got to try this one -- it's my husband's favorite. He ate way too much of it too...
I appreciate you so much. Your recipes are delicious but not overly complicated and real food!
Dot. You make me so happy. I want you to know that I have been making your recipes well ahead of time and freezing portions. I have completely learned to “make ahead” and it has made all the difference in the world. You have really impacted my life my dear. Thank you so so much. I am a true keto body type and your recipes make me so happy.
I made this last night. All I can say is that I don't think I was even living until I had this! Hubby was crazy about it too-so crazy that he said he wants this as his birthday dinner. I made it exactly as directed except that I used olive oil and butter instead of the other oils/fats. I also used sharp yellow cheddar because I didn't have white. Oh wow, people you have GOT to make this, it is to die for!!!!
Have you had a cooking show before? You are a natural, very personable ! A++ on recipes, and presentation.
I wish! Thank you so much. Really appreciate it :)
@@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving your voice is so soothing, you're great on camera.
I’ve watched 2 of your videos today and wow! I will be making both of them I’m the near future! That is delicious keto cooking!
Hi dot I made this tonight I'm in the uk and never tasted this before and it was amazing I'm sure I will be making this again thank you for all your tutorials hope your mum and yourself are doing well xx
Thank you! :)
Hello Marie ..
It was a lovely but the question is that how did you feel?

I know exactly how you feel, because when I slip up, that's me. Happy you're enjoying the videos. Let's stay on track together :)
I'm with you! Screwed up major over Holidays. Back on track 6 days. You git got support, I know how you feel. The bubble guts after cheating , especially with ice cream and cake, is real! Trying this recipe and if you want, will keep you posted.

LOOKS SO GOOD! Could just imagine the onions frying! Definitely doing this! Thank you.
Thank you!
Thanks Dot! I love your recipes, advice and most of all your friendly, funny commentary. A pleasure to watch. Thanks again
I made this for lunch today, and it was pretty good. I will make it again, but with a couple of modifications. I will thin the sauce out a bit with a small amount of beef broth (the sauce as is was just a little too rich for our palates), and I will leave off the provolone topping.
That'd definitely cut down the richness. Glad you liked it! :)
Looks amazing!! We order cheesesteaks at a local restaurant and instead of a roll, we have them put it over a salad. Very good. Will try this soon!!
I know how you feel. I always feel like I should pay a discount because "no bread," but try explaining that to someone (lol). Hope you like it :) If you're like me, you will.

Hello Gail. .
That was lovely..
How do you feel?
YUM. I made this for dinner last week and it was AMAZING!
Hey there! I just made this today and oh my gosh .. it is amazing 😉 it is so delicious 🤤 thank you for sharing this with us! You have some great recipes! I used white cheddar and Swiss and also Parmesan.. then topped with provolone
Ooooh...good cheese choices!!!
Hello Rachel ..
It was a lovely but the question is that how did you feel?
Love it. I live in New Mexico and we love our hatch Green Chile so I will be adding some to the mixture! Lol. Great recipe thanks!
Dot you nailed it again, so lucky to have come across you, you keep me on track
Success!

You're looking good 😊Thank you so much! I love your recipes and videos especially since I'm just learning to cook from scratch. Thank you
Hello! New subscriber here! I love your channel. It is just what I need to help me get started on my low carb journey. I have decided to make this dish as my first low carb meal. Thanks you for helping me and your other subcribers on our journey to a healthier lifestyle!
Welcome to the channel and good luck on your journey.
That looks delicious, will have to make this. thank you for sharing.
I freeze my bacon for a while then cut it up and cook a week’s supply with onions for my eggs. This looks great!
That sounds brilliant :) Thank you!
Joanne, I'm going to try this! Before Keto I put onion in just about everything. Now, I'm cautious, but I miss it some days. I also think I could benefit from a little meal prep, so 2 birds 1 stone. Thanks!
This looks AWESOME & LOOKS DELISH!!!👍👍👍❤❤❤ DEFINITELY trying it this next week!!👍👍👍❤❤❤❤
Yet ANOTHER one of your casseroles I will be making (with some minor tweaks) being from Jersey and all. What's a cheesesteak without pepperoncini...😁 I have that same apron; for about 25 years now. 😊
Looks GREAT! We can't wait to try it.

Awesome :) I loved it too. Sorry about all the prep time, but yes, I agree, there is a bit to it there. The good news is it should last a while.
Love your videos, recipes are good for me that I’m doing Keto... very charismatic lady. Thank you
Thank you
My mouth is watering! Looks delicious and I've been craving Philly Cheesesteak!! Thanks
My pleasure, hope you like it :)
I wish the Food Netwook (or someone) would give you your own show. I love watching you cook. And while I'm eating low carb, my Mister is not, but we often find dishes we can both enjoy.
Too kind! Who doesn't wanna be on TV? :) Hope your husband comes around!
Made it today was really good .we all enjoyed it
That rocks -- it's one of my husband's favs :)
Wow I can't wait to try this recipe! I Love Philly Cheesesteaks!! Another Winner Dot!
I’m maintaining now and your recipes and ideas look fantastic. I’m a new subscriber and thank you for sharing.
Welcome to the channel.
I'm nearly always disappointed with 99% of the keto recipes on here but i made this and loved it!
I will definitely be trying this!! I love cheesesteak!!
This looks amazing! I can't wait to try! Thanks for sharing!
I can't wait to try this!
Very nice. Glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Oh man that looks so good! Love your videos, so clear and perfect!
Was wondering if you have done any PSMF days/meals? Have you heard of protein sparing bread Dot?
I’ve just learned of it?
I’ve made your pizza casserole that’s a great recipe btw thank you for that I made it right after I watched it and I’m going to give this one a try this weekend :)
Ok. I have to know where to get the powered salt and pepper grinder :) Another awesome Recipe. Thank you soooo much.
Tim -- I just updated my "amazon store" in with the exact grinders I use (got them for xmas). You can find the link to the store in the video description near the top. Yes, I get a small commission (but you pay the same price). But there are lots of different grinders out there. These work great though.
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living Thanks
Where can I find your salt /pepper grinder set? Genius!!
Thank you for theses awesome videos! You totally rock! And you really look great too!
Hello Christine ..
It was a lovely but the question is that how did you feel?
This would be fantastic served on top of a basic Chaffle!!
You have the best Recipes for low carb& keto. Thank u. Will make this for sure
Where are the stats on these recipes? Am I missing them? Just found you and love, love, love your recipes.
Hi, I put the recipes on my web page. You can find the link in the video description on youtube. Cheers.
Can this be fully put together and then frozen to make a weeknight dinner easier? I have two kids, 3 & 5, and work full time, so I'm looking for keto recipes that I can put together on the weekend that will feed us for the week. Thanks!!! Love the videos and recipes. Can't wait to try this one and the pizza casserole.
I haven't frozen this one but you should be able to.
LOL I bet your hubby was drooling at the mouth to get dug in to that dish. Looks lovely and my man would love it. Can I ask if you eat any type of bread or would you say it was a no no when trying to lose weight.
In my normal day-to-day I eat practically no types of bread. Occasionally I experiment, or make something for others and then have a little (oopsie bread, for example). And of course I make stuff for the channel, and I eat that -- not bread, per se, but treats like the cheesecake.
Husband: he ate 2 helpings (against my wishes) :)
Yummy!!. I'II have to try and make this, it look great.
It was -- and hope you like :)
Oh my that looks great!! Me and my husband are totally gonna try this!!! I got one question tho..... Where did you get your salt and pepper grinders?? 😁
Marie, I literally just updated my "Essential Kitchen Tools And Books For Low Carb Living" link (in the video description) with these grinders. They are the first entry. Note: I get a commission from Amazon if you click the link, but it doesn't add to your price. Just a disclaimer haha. My husband got me these for xmas. They work great. Cheers.
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living why thank you for responding! So I took a look and told my hubby, so looks like Im getting new salt and pepper grinders.... Thanx again! 😁
Wow, that's awesome! You have a great husband (and he has a great wife). Happy peppering! :)
Oh my gosh I'm gonna sous vide those ribeyes and cut 'em up and throw them in. Melt in my mouth! Thanks for the recipe!
Hah, welcome!
OMG!! YOU are my hero!
First of all.....BIG congratulations, on your weight loss!!!!

Oh, and disclaimer: that's an affiliate link -- zero difference in price though :) Cheers.
You seem to have several kitchen stuff as Christmas gifts from your husband :) he's amazing.
Thanks for your reply and love your personality!
Yum, looks so delicious. Ingredients going on my grocery list. Thanks Dot
Enjoy :) Lemme know how it goes if you do!
Hello Grace..
How did you feel after watching the movie?
It looks like a great recipe. I just have to ask, where do you find your duck grease? At a butcher shop? Thanks for all of your lovely posts.
I either get it from Fatworks (online), Amazon, or at Wegman's (store in our area). Cheers :)
So do you do keto or just low carb? Or are those the same thing? I'm just looking into this journey and so far you have some really good recipes.
All keto is low carb, but not all low carb is keto. Keto is generally eating 20g of carbs a day, or less. Above that would be 'moderate' low carb and then 'liberal' low carb. All are way better than pounding down a bowl of pasta and washing it down with a Coke (hehe). Welcome to the journey!
I've never cooked with duck fat. Is it better or tastier than ghee, butter or various oil options (olive, avocado, etc)?
I made this and it was wonderful, thank you💕
Yay!
2 questions, first can you freeze this in individual servings to eat later and second can you jar and freeze just the cheese sauce? Love the looks of this can not wait to do this. Going to make this post sleeve diet much better.
Yes you can freeze the sauce for later. Just thaw it in the refrigerator. As for freezing individual servings, you can, but I normally under cook the veggies a bit. I find they take to freezing better that way and won't disintegrate when you thaw/heat up. Let me know how it turns out for you.
I'm gunna make this tomorrow
Love the steak freezer trick! And this does look delicious 😋
It helps a lot -- and thank you! :)
Love your channel, just subscribed :)
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living Thank you Dot! We love watching your channel as well 👍🏽 We appreciate your support.

Where did you find you salt and pepper grinders? They are cute
You can get them here (scroll down a teensy bit). It's my Amazon store -- and disclaimer: I get a small commission. But YOU don't pay anything extra. Husband got the grinders for xmas :) www.amazon.com/shop/dot2trotslowcarbliving
Excellent! Satisfying and delicious! Thanks for the video :0)
I tried this and it was absolutely delicious. Thanks so much. Is there a place I can copy and paste the recipe from? I tried from you tube and it wouldn’t let me. I want to save it on my phone to use again.
Not sure how to copy/save it with a phone, but from a desktop computer, you should be able to go right to the video description and copy/paste the normal way. I'll paste it here though so you get it in your email (if you've set up replies to comments to go to email). Very happy you liked the recipe:
Philly Cheesesteak Casserole:
Servings: 6-8
The carb count and nutrition data below is based on serving size of 6. Since the cheese sauce is optional, I include those numbers separately.
✅Cheesesteak Nutrition, WITHOUT Cheese Sauce:
Total Carbs/Serving 6.3g
Total Net Carbs/Serving: 4.7

Total Net Carbs/Serving: 1.5g
Nutrition: 301 Calories/11.2g Protein/28g Fat/1.6g Carbs/0.1g Fiber
🔔Note: Traditionally Philly Cheesesteaks are made with thinly cut rib-eye steaks. However, they can be costly. Good alternatives include top sirloin or skirt steaks. For those of you on a tight budget, ground beef can be used as well, just make sure it is well drained after you brown it.
◾Cheese Sauce Ingredients:
¾ C Heavy cream
2 C cheddar cheese, grated
¼ C Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tbsp. butter, unsalted and cubed
¼ tsp. Himalayan salt or sea salt
1/8 tsp. Black pepper
½ tsp. Paprika (optional)
◾Philly Cheesesteak Ingredients:
2 lbs. Steak (rib-eye, top sirloin, skirt)
1 tbsp. Ghee or tallow
1 Small onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
2½ tbsp. Duck fat, divided (can also use ghee, butter or light olive oil)
1 tbsp. Butter, unsalted
2 C White button Mushrooms, sliced
1 Medium green pepper, thinly sliced
1 Medium red pepper, thinly sliced
1 Small orange pepper, thinly sliced
Sea salt
Fresh cracked black pepper
1 Batch of cheese sauce (optional)
10 Pepperoncini peppers, sliced (optional)
4 oz. Provolone or Swiss cheese
✅Directions
1. Place steaks in freezer bag and place in freezer for 30-45 minutes to make the steaks easier to cut into thin slices.
2. While steaks are freezing, begin shredding the cheddar and Parmesan cheese for the cheese sauce, and slicing your onion, peppers and mushrooms.
3. Remove steaks from freezer and slice into thin strips. Place in a bowl and season with sea salt and pepper. Set aside.
4. Preheat oven to 350; lightly grease a casserole dish and set aside.
5. If making cheese sauce, pour cream into small saucepan over medium low heat. Once cream is warm, add ¼ cup of cheese to the cream at a time, stirring until melted before adding in more cheese. Stir in butter and season with Himalayan salt and pepper. Turn off burner but keep pan on stovetop near the oven heat source to keep warm. Stir occasionally to prevent a thin skin forming on top of sauce.
6. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp. of ghee or beef tallow over high heat. Once fat is sizzling, working in batches, add in steak; cook for 1 minute on each side. Next, place meat on cutting board and chop into smaller, bite-size pieces; place steak in a large, clean mixing bowl and set aside.
7. Wipe the skillet clean with a paper cloth (careful as it is hot!) and heat ½ tbsp. of duck fat and 1 tbsp. of butter over medium heat until sizzling. Add in onions and stir to coat with the fat. Continue stirring until onions are soft; season with a pinch or 2 of kosher salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook onions, stirring every 1-minute to prevent them from sticking or coloring too much. Onions are finished when blonde-colored, about 10 minutes. Place onions in bowl with steak.
8. Wipe skillet clean and heat 1 tbsp. of duck fat over medium heat until sizzling. Add in mushrooms, stirring to coat them with the fat; sprinkle a pinch of kosher salt over mushrooms. Stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release water. Turn heat to medium low and let water evaporate. Once water evaporates, cook mushrooms for 1-2 minutes more to brown. Place in bowl with steak and onions.
9. Next, heat 1 tbsp. of duck fat in skillet over medium heat until sizzling. Add in peppers, season with salt and, stirring occasionally, cook until softened. If desired, place peppers on cutting board and chop into small bite size pieces. Place in bowl with steak, onions and mushrooms.
10. Add cheese sauce to bowl and stir to combine all ingredients. Pour mixture into casserole dish. Top with chopped pepperoncini, if using, and provolone cheese. Bake until cheese has melted, about 10-15 minutes. After cheese has melted, you can broil for about 5 minutes to brown if desired.
Thanks so much. I have struggled with weight a long time. I have beat cancer 3 times and still get up every morning ready to take on the day. Watching your video about your health really hit home. Thanks for your recipes. I don’t have time a lot of days to get on the Internet but would of be to get a cookbook if you have one out there. Thanks again. I weigh 298 and want to get to 150. My journey has begun.
I'm new to Keto and recently discovered your channel. You present delicious and easy meals , which I appreciate. Special request - I don't drink coffee, but is there any chance someone has a similar bullet proof recipe for tea or hot chocolate drinkers? I'd love to be able to take advantage of the benefits of bullet proof, but I can't stand coffee!
Bullet tea is a real thing! You can pretty much use the bullet proof coffee recipe with tea. You may want to experiment with type of tea to see works the best for you. I've used green, black and oolong teas. So for 8 oz of hot tea, blend in 1 tbsp of coconut oil, 1 tbsp of butter and blend. You can also add 1 tsp. of MCT oil too (i usually reduce the coconut oil by 1 teaspoon if I use MCT). Some people may use coconut milk with coconut oil if they want to keep it dairy free.
Thanks for answering my question. I'm anxious to try the bullet proof tea!
The recipe looks amazing and I’m going to try it but did you cut the steak with the grain rather than against it?
You should always go against it but I wouldn't doubt that I made a boo boo here :)
Dot2Trot's Low Carb Living I see that you chopped it up in the end so it looks beautiful. I love watching your videos. I lost 120 lbs and stopped taking all but one of my medications because of keto. Your channel has been a go to for me.
Wow...that is awesome and congrats.
Dot, I miss you. I pray all is well with you and your family. Come back!
Hello Sylvia ..
It was a lovely but the question is that how did you feel?
What a wonderful idea!
I will try this for my family!
Great ideas as usual. thanks Jennifer 😃
Thank you! Hope you like it :)
nom nom....gonna make this and put a stripe of marinara on top after it's finished. For those can't drop $25 on two beautiful ribeyes you could definitely use SteakUms. That's the only brand I feel is worthy of a cheese steak and I've tried all the rest. I'm from the Philly area so cheese steaks were their own food group growing up :-)
Thanks for the tip!
No problem....you have the best low carb recipes on YT...and I've looked at a bunch of channels the last 9 years. Good stuff.
Can you tell me the brand and style of your pot and pan. I love how the food refused to stick to the sides.
These are "sur la table" pans, and I bought them out of their store in Virginia. I'm sure you can get them online though (because it's 2018 lol). I love them too -- very nice, and seem to last longer than teflon. Cheers.
Just found you yesterday... watching a few video videos. Where did you purchased the salt and pepper grinders please?
Heya Holly. Glad you're liking the vids... My husband purchased them on Amazon. We have them in our store there, along with all the other stuff we use (down the page a bit):

@@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving Thank you so much!
What does the C means, i am dutch is iT a weight or a volume? The dish looks yummie🤗
C = Cup :) Enjoy!
Just made this, and OMG! This is far too yummy to be diet food!
Dot, I have been on Keto diet for 10 days now but I do not count the calories, the fat, the protein. Is there an easy way to do that?
There are some apps out there, but I don't really use them (anymore). My Fitness Pal wasn't bad, but they had some annoying features. I just sorta keep a running tab in my head at the moment. That could change in the future. I don't count calories at all, though.
OUTSTANDING!!!!
Instead of bell peppers, what other veggies can be used? I love them, but no one in the family will eat them. Tanks for your recipes.
It really is just whatever you like. Something that doesn't add too much water would do well.
I sure miss Dot! Anyone know if she is okay?
I wish you were still making videos Dot!
Just taking time off for other things :) Thanks!
Looks so good but I wouldn’t waste the Rib Eye. Ribeye with salt pepper butter
Can I use chicken, just like chicken cheese steak?
Can you make ahead and freeze for a later day?
Yes
? Where do you buy Duck fat?
I get mine from fat works (fatworksfoods.com). Can also get their fats from Amazon (as well as other brands, but haven't tried those). If you don't want to use duck fat, you can stick with ghee or lard (for example).
Damn that looks great!!!!
This looks delicious. I'm so hungry now. lol
How many carbs?
