Thanks Bill! So happy to hear that you liked it!
Jersey Jill
Made this dish for dinner last night. Delicious!! I doubled the recipe to have leftovers too since everyone in the family is on different schedules and packs lunches for themselves each day. Everyone has complimented me and teased me saying it’s about time I made something different. I guess we were all bored with the regular routine meals. Definitely will be making this recipe again in the near future.

Can you make this and freeze for later?

Yes you can. Cook the noodles al dente. Then defrost in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat in the microwave at a reduced power.
Tricia gerard
Just made this tonight and the family and I loved it! Thank you! It’s a keeper!
Violet
This is in my rotation! We LOVE it!
Dan Martek
Can you suggest any substations for the French onion soup? Canned soups are loaded with sodium and i have HBP. TIA
Beth Pierce
You could use some homemade beef stock or broth jazzed up with some spices
Jennifer buchanan
Absolutely love this recipe! Even my River year grandson ate 2 bowls!
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
That is awesome! So glad that he liked it.
Diana Mossbrook
Can you make this in an instant pot without the cheese and corn starch? If so, how long do you think it should cook in the IP?
Beth Pierce
Not sure. Let’s see if the readers have any suggestions.
Vonnie Galusha
You could. substitute for four the cornstarch. I’m not sure of the amount, but you want a slightly thick slurry. As for the cheese, Leave I’d or and serve I’d on the slide. Is it a Diary issue? What about a mild goat cheese? As for the IP. it’s a one dish meal that already goes together quickly. In not sure you really needed an Instapot.
Hope this helps!
Vonnie
Stephanie
Looks good 👍 Could steak’em or thin slices of eye-of-round be used instead of ground beef???
Beth Pierce
Thanks Stephanie! Yes it could.
Violet
Love, love, love this recipe! The only thing I do different is substitute red or orange pepper for the green. None of us like green peppers! Takes away from some of the authenticity, but, good none the less. One of our favorites.
Beth Pierce
Thanks Violet! So glad that you like it. I love red and orange peppers too!
Amy
It was a hit with the kids!!! Next time they can put their own cheese on though. Some like more some like less!!!
★★★★
Beth Pierce
That is awesome! So glad that they liked it!!

I cannot find can onion soup can I use packaged onion soup mixed with water instead
Beth Pierce
Yes other people have done this and said that it worked.
Sherry Jackson-Reeder
I just made this. So yummy
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks Sherry! So glad that you like it!!
Laurie
Made this tonight, followed the recipe as it was, will use less Worcestershire sauce next time, was a little bit overpowering, and definitely needed seasoning,salt and pepper.
Rose
I plan on making this tomorrow for dinner can I use my Tupperware pressure cooker?
Beth Pierce
I am not sure Rose. I do not own a pressure cooker. So sorry!
Tom
Made this for my wife. We liked it. It is a keeper receipe. But when cleaning up, how do you get the cheese out of the dish rag? Again though, loved it.
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
I use a nonstick skillet and let the residue rinse down the drain. I guess you could likewise wipe out the skillet with a paper towel.
Cindy Johnson
Just made this. It was delicious and will now be a family favorite. The only thing I will change for next time is using only 1/2 of the Worcestershire sauce. It seemed to over power the flavor of onion and peppers. So good though!
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks Cindy! So glad that you enjoyed it!!
Alison Cristian
Made this tonight! I used leftover sirloin steak from last night and didn’t have canned onion soup. Used the dry mix onion soup mixed w/14 oz water. So amazing!!!!
Beth Pierce
Thanks Allison! So glad that you liked it!
Trudy
I gave it 5 stars because it sounds delicious. I’m making it tonight, can’t wait to try it. The grocery stores in my area, all sell condensed French onion soup, Walmart, Market Basket, Hannafords.
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Awesome. I hope you enjoy it. It is such a quick, easy and delicious meal!
Teresa
What do you think about mixing all the ingredients up and putting it in a 9×13 dish and baking it for a bit. Sprinkle cheese on top as well?
Rhonda
That is how I make it. I spread it out in a dish. Then put sliced provolone on top and bake until the cheese is melted.
Jay Sheridan
Fantastic fast dinner. Thanks!

Crissy
This was so delicious! My husband actually helped me make it, he loves Philly cheesesteaks. This was pretty easy and fast to make, we used mini penne, our 17 month old loved it too. A definite make again in our house. Thanks for a great recipe!
★★★★★
Cristina Sanchez
Hi Beth, I want to make this dish, it looks delicious!! But we don’t like mushrooms, is there a substitute for mushrooms, or is okay to omit it.
Thank you!
Beth Pierce
You can certainly omit them. Enjoy and have a fabulous weekend!
Kayla
I am celiac and I cannot find a condensed mushroom or French onion. I have the dry pack French onion that’s gluten free, I have a condensed cream chicken soup, and I have beef broth. Which would be the best solution?
Beth Pierce
In my opinion the dry pack mixed with some water or beef broth would give you the most flavor.
Lynn donker
Some water..how much with a whole pack of dried onion soup
Beth Pierce
I would start with maybe 2/3 cup of water and add more as needed.
E
The nutrition facts listed, is that for the whole 4 servings recipe or is that for 1/4 of the total. i.e. if I eat 1/4 of what the recipe makes have I eaten roughly 600 calories or 150?
Beth Pierce
If you eat 1/4 of the recipe then you would eat 600 calories
Amy
Hello how do you substitute the cheese? mozzarella?
Beth Pierce
Yes you can use mozzarella!!
Stephanie
How many cups in a serving?
Beth Pierce
I have never measured it but I would think it is about two cups per serving.
Megan
Is there a substitute for the French onion soup?
Beth Pierce
You can substitute low sodium beef broth!
Wanda
I have never seen or heard of condensed French onion soup. I will have to look for it. Since I have not made it I cannot give it any stars, but it sounds delicious. Will try soon.
Beth Pierce
Thanks Wanda! Campbell’s soup has a version in the smaller can.
Pamela Cochran
Can this recipe be cooked in a crockpot, leaving out the pasta and provolone cheese til half hour or so before serving time?
Beth Pierce
Yes you can. I find that browning the ground beef before you put in the crock pot does add more flavor.
Cindy Middleton
Love this recipe! So yummy, it’s a keeper!
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks so much Cindy! Glad that you enjoyed it!
Rob Booska
Your recipe calls for only 8oz pasta is that correct?.I’m making this tonight and have a 16oz box of pasta
Beth Pierce
There is a lot of other stuff in that recipe. You could add a touch more but you do not want it to be too dry.
Anita
This is great as we get older sauce red cantaloupe do I have tried a lot this recipe is the best my husband loves it . Yes you can freeze it I have a son in college I make him meals and freeze them.mmmgood
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks Anita! So glad that you like it and that you can prepare some for your son in college.
Ed
It was awesome everyone loved it , I substituted the Hamburg with frozen minute steaks and chopped it up small .
Thanks
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks Ed! So glad that you liked it!!
Liz
Can I use Progresso soup instead? Couldn’t find condensed.
Beth Pierce
You can certainly try it.
Kimberly Cagle
This recipe was meant for me to make tonight because I have some thinly sliced sirloin and a can of french onion soup! I normally don’t have these two items on hand. I know it will be delicious and thank you for posting the recipe.
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
You are most welcome! I hope you enjoy it!
Nichole
I could not find condensed french onion soup so I just used condensed mushroom soup. It still turned out awesome, but I am wondering how it would taste with the real thing! Thank you for the great recipe!
Beth Pierce
Thanks Nichole! So glad that you liked it! You might be able to find condensed French Onion Soup on Amazon.
Barbara
Love it.. what would be a good side for this dish? Garlic bread ? Or is there something else you suggest??
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Garden salad, fresh asparagus, steamed broccoli, hot buttered rolls or garlic bread.
Lauralei
Oh we will be making this again for sure! Very tasty and very quick!
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Awesome! I am so glad that you liked it!!
Ben
Not quite what I expected when I saw Philly Cheesesteak Pasta, but this was delicious and enjoyed by the whole family. My son said it’s his new favorite! Thank you for sharing.
★★★★★
Beth Pierce
Oh great! I am so glad that your family liked it!
Maggie
Made this dish tonight and enjoyed it thoroughly. Whenever I make it again, I’ll leave out some of the meat since I thought it was too much.
★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks Maggie! Yes some folks need a little less meat than this crazy family.
Kathleen
Thank you for the great recipe? perfect the way it is!
Beth Pierce
Thanks so much Kathleen! We love this recipe! Delicious!
Jean
This DOES look tasty! I’d probably tweak it a little, to make it a bit healthier : Leave out the pasta(too many carbs), and I would drain all that hamburger grease off , and 86 the butter and cornstarch…doesn’t need any of that. Serve over mashed cauliflower instead…Delicious!
Mae
Bet it would be great poured over regular steamed cauliflower.. nice variation.. I’m still OK with a bit of fat! It is, after all a CHEESESTEAK and, personally.. I workout, so some fat is great for my joints and still lets me keep those nice curves! But I ADORE Cauliflower and this has potential!
Susan
Don’t have onion soup. Only the dry pack kind. Is there anything I can do?
Beth Pierce
Yes you could add that and a little water. Just prepare the soup according to the instructions…one serving. Add that at the same time as the canned soup.
Samantha
I was going to give this a try this evening and could only find the dry mix as well, so fingers crossed it turns out okay. Glad someone else has already asked this!
Beth Pierce
Sorry I missed this. I hope it turned out good!
Brenda Cutrona
Would love to try this ingenious recipe one day soon. Luscious and simple !
★★★★
Beth Pierce
Thanks! You will love it!!
Debbie
I am wondering if this can be frozen for meals later? We just had it for the first time. It is very good. I am having left hand surgery this week and would love to have it ready.
Beth Pierce
So glad that you liked it. You know I have never frozen this one. I do however think it can be. I would however cook the pasta al dente so that when you reheat it the noodles are not mushy. Wishing you the best of luck on your hand surgery and for a speedy recovery.
Jim
Is the French Onion Soup condensed soup?
Beth Pierce
Yes it is but please do not add the water as on the can instructions
Kriss
I don’t have French onion soup. Can i use something else
Beth Pierce
You can use beef broth but the flavor will be a little different.
Tina
I used golden mushroom soup was sooo good!
Beth Pierce
Awesome! So glad that you liked it!
Shannon
How many servings does this make?
Beth Pierce
You know my husband is a really big eater so this serving part is always the hardest for me. I would say four servings unless I am feeding him and then it is 2 1/2. LOL!
Yvonne Ponzo
I’m enjoying seeing these receipes and would like their instructions. My daughter-in-law just had the first of 2 rotator cup surgeries and would like some of these to take to their home.
Beth Pierce
Will do!
Nina
Fast and delicious ! Followed recipe as written. Will make again!
Kevin Taylor
I made it this evening but I couldn’t find the French onion soup so I used cream of onion instead!! The cream of onion soup added a good flavor and made it really creamy but I definitely want to try it with the French onion soup!! I also added some minced garlic and an extra tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce! And it turned out really good! I wanted to add a couple of the pictures I took but I do not have Instagram
