Recipe

mushroom Philly cheesesteak is a successful vegan version of original Philly cheesesteak. A great recipe for the diet conscious people, still not compromises with the taste.

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

Most of the time, I always choose Philly chicken cheesesteak in the 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 removed 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 which can also be made with minimal ingredients. You may also check other sandwich recipes like Coriander Sandwich and grilled veggie sandwich.

Pro  tips

  • For this mushroom Philly cheesesteak recipe, slice the veggies into slightly thicker, as it gets caramelized and still remains juicer inside.
  • I have grilled mushroom as I feel it is good with the texture and taste.
  •  I have added paprika for the spiciness, increase or decrease the quantity according to your choice.
  • No cheese include in this recipe, add it if you wish.

How to Make

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

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