CheesesteakV the Leafzard

This vegan Philly cheesesteak is so easy to make and the result is a hearty and delicious sandwich! The blend of vegan meat, caramelized onions, green peppers, and vegan cheese blend together for the perfect vegan cheesesteak!


🧅 1 large onion, cut into strips
🫑 1.5 green bell peppers, cut into strips
🥪 1.5 cups vegan ground beef [I like Gardein] Sub with mushrooms if you want
🧀 5 slices vegan cheese [I like Field Roast Chao brand]
🌿 1 tsp oregano
🥪 1 tsp salt
🥪 1/2 tsp pepper
🥪 2 hoagie rolls, cut in half


🌿 1) Preheat oven to 375

🌿 2) In a little bit of oil on medium-high heat, saute strips of onion until translucent and brown, about 5-10 minutes. Once the onions start to cook, add in your green peppers and cook for a little until green peppers start to become soft.

🌿 3) Add in your vegan beef and all of the spices and mix until well combined. Saute until the vegan beef is browned and cooked.

🌿 4) Place your sliced hoagie rolls and one slice of vegan cheese each in the oven and cook until the inside of the bread is crispy to the touch.

🌿 5) Meanwhile, place 3-4 slices of vegan cheese on top of the meat and veggie mixture in the pan. Cover the pan and let cook for 2-4 minutes or until the vegan cheese is melted. Once the vegan cheese is melted, take your spatula and mix until the cheese is combined throughout the Philly cheesesteak filling.

🌿 6) Remove the hoagie rolls from the oven once they are crispy. Carefully spoon half of the filling onto the two hoagie rolls. The filling will spill out but that is okay!

🌿 7) Serve immediately with chips, french fries, or a side salad!


🥪 If you don't want to use vegan beef crumbles you can use mushrooms instead. Just sub an even amount of mushrooms for the vegan beef crumbles.

🥪 I have also made this recipe with no onions and have subbed two green onions cut into slices instead. It still tasted fantastic!

🥪 This recipe does not store well so don't try and put the whole sandwich in the fridge. You can make the vegan Philly cheesesteak filling in advance and store it in the fridge and then just reheat and toast your buns when you are ready to make this sandwich!
