How to Make Healthy Philly Steak Sandwiches
These Philly cheesesteak sandwiches have been made healthy and lower in calories and carbs thanks to our low calorie tips and tricks.
Low Calorie Tips for Philly Steak Sandwiches:
- Hollow out the rolls, we remove 1/3 of the calories and carbs per roll!
- Add bell peppers to help naturally boost metabolism and give you a larger serving, for fewer calories.
- Omit the mayo! The added veggies supply enough moisture, omitting the need for mayonnaise.
How to Make Philly Cheesesteak Homemade:
- Spray a large skillet with olive oil, and heat over medium heat.
- Add in the sliced onions and bell peppers and cook for 10 minutes until softened and starting to caramelize.
- Transfer the vegetables to a bowl, and add the sliced steak to the pan.
- Sprinkle the steak with garlic salt and pepper and cook for 5-8 minutes until cooked through.
- Meanwhile slice the hoagie rolls 3/4 way through, and use your fingers to hollow out and remove 1/3 of the bread from the interior of the rolls (this removes calories, carbs, and gives you more room for the Philly cheesesteak meat!)
- Add the veggies back to the pan and toss well, then turn off the heat.
- Divide the steak and veggies between each roll, and top immediately with provolone (so it melts).
- Serve hot.
