Beyond Cheesesteak
A new take on an old favorite
Servings 3 people
Ingredients
- 1 lb Beyond Beef or other plant based ground meat
- 1 cup cola
- 7 oz water
- 3 6-inch hoagie rolls
- 1 white onion
- 7 oz American cheese
- 3 tbsp oil vegetable or olive
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep the caramelized onions: Thinly slice the onion. Combine the sliced onion, cola, and a pinch of salt in a small pot and heat to a simmer. Cook down until the onions are reduced and the cola is completely evaporated. Be careful not to burn them!
- Make the cheese sauce: To make the cheese sauce, combine cheese and water in a small sauce pot and bring to medium heat. Whisk until fully incorporated, and keep warm for serving.
- Cook the Beyond Beef®: Heat the oil in a non-stick pan on medium-high heat. Crumble the Beyond Beef® into the pan and sear while stirring. Add salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste.
- Assemble sandwich: Once the Beyond Beef® is cooked, stir in caramelized onion. Place this mixture on 6-inch hoagie roll, and top with cheese sauce. Place your assembled sandwich in the oven and set to broil for approximately 20 seconds, or until the cheese is melted.
- Add any of your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato or mayonnaise.
- Serve, share, and enjoy!
Notes
Great Tip: Be sure to let the Beyond Beef thaw before cooking.
