Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium (diced) yellow onion
- 1 medium (diced) green bell pepper
- 1 cup (sliced) mushrooms
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 0.5 cup cheese whiz
- 4 pieces hoagie rolls
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (softened, optional for toasting rolls) unsalted butter
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for 3–4 minutes, until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Push the vegetables to the edges of the skillet and add the ground beef to the center of the pan.
Break up the ground beef with a spatula and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.
Mix the cooked vegetables back into the ground beef and season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for 1–2 more minutes.
While the beef mixture is cooking, lightly spread softened butter on the inside of the hoagie rolls. Toast them on a skillet or griddle until golden brown, about 1 minute per side.
Lay a slice of provolone cheese on each bottom half of the toasted hoagie rolls and spoon the hot beef mixture on top to melt the cheese slightly.
Drizzle a generous amount of cheese whiz over the beef mixture.
Close the sandwiches with the top halves of the rolls. Serve immediately with chips or your favorite side.
