Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich on Garlic Bread
Jump to Recipe 
Sometimes my wandering mind actually provides me with great ideas. The other day I was thinking about sandwiches and had an epiphony; garlic bread as the base of the sandwich. Boom. Why didn’t I think of this earlier? What is not to love about adding the deliciousness of garlic bread to a sandwich. I think I should get my food truck up and running asap before my genius ideas get stolen! 😉
This sandwich is super easy to throw together and the garlic bread makes it even better. My Philly cheesesteak may not be any better than the next guys, but I can assure you that this recipe with the garlic bread is!

I’d love to have a philly cheese right now! I’ve never seen it on the menu in Australia. 🙂 I’ll follow your guidance and make it at home.
Sandwiches on garlic bread sound like a fabulous idea to me! Yum! 🙂
The fact that you made homemade garlic bread makes this an even more fantastic recipe! May your food truck dreams come true… 🙂
Bobby’s grilling a flank steak tomorrow night. Hum – I wonder what I’ll be doing with the leftovers. 🙂 What a great sandwich and you’re right – the garlic bread takes it over the top.
Oooooh, yes please! Garlic bread is one of my big weaknesses, and who doesn’t love some steak on top! 🙂
Genius!! What a great idea, I’m jealous I didn’t try this first! I love love love garlic bread, can’t imagine what a delicious philly cheesesteak is like on it. Yum!!!
What a great idea! I love garlic bread!
Yum, perfect! Garlic bread makes EVERYTHING better. You should try it with a french dip sandwich…delish!!
I will def have to try garlic bread next time i make cheesesteaks!
Seriously? Garlic bread AND cheesesteak? Yes, please!
I am tooootally digging on the idea of garlic bread as the sandwich base! Cheesesteak sandwiches are one of the few things BF whips up for us every now and then – I will have to sneak this in as a suggestion for him the next time he cooks!
This is a wonderful recipe but we used a Rosemary Garlic Bread from Costco and it was even better. We use the Rosemary Garlic Bread from Costco for all kinds of sandwiches, toast, and as a compliment to main dishes such as Pasta etc. It is the best garlic bread ever.
Oh. Wow. I posted a recipe that was like this tonight! Honestly, yours looks even better-far more food truck worthy! I love the addition of the peppers. Mine just had onions…it was yummy but…now I’m jealous!
