Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces gluten-free hoagie rolls
- 0.5 pound ground beef
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 piece green bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 piece yellow onion, diced
- 1 piece tomato, sliced
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
Instructions
Place the gluten-free hoagie rolls in a preheated 350°F (180°C) oven for about 5 minutes to warm and lightly toast them.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion and green bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
Add the ground beef to the skillet with the onion and bell pepper. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook, breaking the meat with a spatula, until it is browned and cooked through, about 7 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the cooked beef, and allow it to melt, stirring occasionally to combine the meat and cheese.
Remove the rolls from the oven and carefully slice them open. Spread a tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each roll and a tablespoon of ketchup on the other side.
Evenly distribute the cheesy beef mixture onto the bottom halves of the rolls.
Top each sandwich with fresh lettuce leaves and tomato slices.
Close the sandwiches with the top halves of the rolls, slice them in half if desired, and serve immediately.
