Place the ribeye steak in the freezer for 30 minutes to make slicing easier.
Once slightly firm, thinly slice the steak against the grain into strips.
Slice the green bell pepper into thin strips, and slice the onion into half-moons.
Clean and slice the mushrooms into even pieces.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet, sauté for 5 minutes or until they begin to soften.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and continue to sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes until all vegetables are tender.
Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and add the sliced ribeye steak.
Season the steak with black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until it is just cooked through.
Lower the heat to medium and return the vegetable mixture to the skillet, mixing well with the beef.
Divide the beef and vegetable mixture into four portions in the skillet.
Top each portion with a slice of low sodium provolone cheese. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Slice the low sodium sandwich rolls lengthwise and lightly toast them if desired.
Place each portion of the cheesesteak mixture onto a roll.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium Philly cheesesteak!
