Philly cheesesteak stuffed mushrooms are one of my favorite low carb recipes! Next time you have some leftover steak or roast, try this recipe. It's a great low carb way to recycle those leftovers. You could also cook a batch then keep them covered in the refrigerator to use for lunch during the week.

I rounded out my meal with some zoodles and lower carb spaghetti sauce. You could very easily make this a family friendly meal by adding spaghetti or simply stuffing the filling into a hoagie bun!
