Dice the provolone cheese. Mix the diced provolone, softened cream cheese, milk, garlic powder, onion, powder, salt and pepper into the ground beef mixture. Simmer for about 3-4 minutes then remove from heat.
Cut the slider rolls in half and pile in a large spoonful of the ground beef philly cheesesteak filling into each roll.

Notes
Substitutions:
Ground Beef — You can use either 80% lean or 93% lean, however since there is so much fat in the cheese, I usually buy 93%.
Cream Cheese — You can substitute low fat cream cheese if preferred, but stay away from fat free for this recipe since it doesn’t melt and combine in the same way.
How to Store: To save the leftovers, divide the ground beef mixture into meal sized portions and store in an airtight container in the
refrigerator for 3-4 days
in the freezer for up to a month
Once ready to eat, add to fresh, or thawed sub rolls.How to Freeze: These ground beef philly cheesesteaks work well for freezing both before or after cooking to make an easy weeknight meal that you can have prepped and stored for up to 6 months. For full instructions, read the freezer section in the post above. How to Reheat: This can be reheated in the microwave in 30 second increments, or cover with tin foil and place into the oven to reheat.
