Ingredients
For the Philly Cheesesteak Filling:
- 1 large onion, cut into strips

- 1.5 cups vegan ground beef [such as Gardein] or substitute with mushrooms
- 5 slices vegan cheese [such as Field Roast Chao brand]

In a skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the onion strips until translucent and browned, about 5-10 minutes. Add the green pepper strips and cook until softened.
Sauté until the vegan beef is browned and cooked through.
Place hoagie rolls with a slice of vegan cheese each in the oven until crispy inside.
Top the filling with remaining cheese slices, cover, and cook until melted. Mix well.
Spoon the filling onto the hoagie rolls. Serve with sides.
