mushroom Philly cheesesteak is a successful vegan version of the original Philly cheesesteak. It is an excellent recipe for diet-conscious people, still not compromising with the taste.

This mushroom Philly cheesesteak recipe does not call for tonnes of cheese and meat. Once you taste this, I'm sure you will make it more often in the kitchen.

Most of the time, I always choose Philly chicken cheesesteak in restaurants. I'm kind of addicted to its juicy, cheesy texture and its caramelized flavors. But being in the diet mood for these days, I made my own vegan mushroom Philly cheesesteak.

Consciously remove the cheese from the ingredients, so it is no longer called 'cheesesteak.' But you need to believe me: this recipe nowhere compromises with the taste, though it does not include cheese.

Sandwiches are everyone's favorite. my other favorite vegan sandwich can also be made with minimal ingredients. You may also check other recipes like Coriander Sandwich and grilled veggie sandwich.

Pro  Tips

  • For this mushroom Philly cheesesteak recipe, slice the veggies into slightly thicker, as it get caramelized and remains juicer inside.
  • I have grilled mushrooms as I feel their texture and taste are good.
  •  I have added paprika for the spiciness. Increase or decrease the quantity according to your choice.
  • No cheese is included in this recipe. Add it if you wish.

How to Make

Wash and clean the mushroom, green pepper, and onion. Slice onion and green peppers.

Slice mushrooms to the same thickness to make the perfect textured mushroom Philly cheesesteak. Hint: Let them be slightly thicker, as it gives a great texture to every bite.
