Crock Pot Cheesesteak Tortellini is a cozy and cheesy slow cooker meal that fuses the classic flavors of a Philly cheesesteak with tender cheese tortellini. It’s hearty, creamy, and full of savory goodness.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 8 oz cream cheese, cubed
  • 1.5 cups shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
  • 20 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini

Instructions

  1. Season sliced beef with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and quickly sear the beef until just browned.
  3. Transfer beef to the crock pot. Add sliced bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic.
  4. Pour in beef broth and dot the top with cubed cream cheese.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours, until beef is tender.
  6. About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the cheese tortellini and shredded provolone or mozzarella.
  7. Cover again and cook until tortellini is tender and the cheese is fully melted into a creamy sauce.
  8. Stir well before serving. Garnish with extra cheese or chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Ground beef can be used instead of sliced steak for a budget-friendly version.
  • Try adding mushrooms or swapping in red bell pepper for variety.
  • Red pepper flakes or banana peppers can add a spicy kick.
  • A spoonful of horseradish adds a tangy steakhouse-style flavor.
  • Freeze only the beef and veggie mixture; add fresh tortellini when ready to serve.
