<br>
<br>BITE IT!
<br>
<br>HG's Philly-licious Cheesesteak Burger
<br>
<br>Eat Your Phil'!
<br>
<br>If someone were to ask if you want a sandwich full of meat, cheese, peppers, and onions, chances are you'd say, "Um, DUH, YES." (Unless you're vegetarian or lactose intolerant, of course.) And while the Applebee's spin on a classic cheesesteak is fantastic in theory, ours is super-delicious and WAY lower in fat and calories. Our version is also veggie-friendly, being both meat-free and loaded with vegetables. YEE-HAAAA!
<br>
<br>Ingredients:
<br>2 tsp. fat-free sour cream
<br>1 slice fat-free American cheese
<br>1/3 cup sliced onion
<br>1/3 cup sliced bell pepper
<br>1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
<br>1 tsp. olive oil
<br>1/8 tsp. black pepper, or more to taste
<br>1 Boca Original Vegan Meatless Burger
<br>One 100-calorie flat sandwich bun (like Arnold Select/Oroweat Sandwich Thins)
<br>
<br>Directions:
<br>In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine sour cream with cheese, breaking cheese into small pieces as you add it. Mix well and set aside.
<br>
<br>Bring a large skillet (or grill pan) sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. Add veggies, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with black pepper. Stirring occasionally, cook until veggies have partially softened, about 3 minutes.
<br>
<br>Move veggies to one side of the skillet and lay burger flat on the other side. Cook until veggies are soft and burger is cooked through, about 8 minutes, stirring veggies occasionally and flipping burger about halfway through. Remove from heat and set aside.
<br>
<br>Split open the bun and, if you like, lightly toast. Plate bun halves and place the burger on top of the bottom half. Evenly top with veggies and set aside.
<br>
<br>Microwave sour cream and cheese for 15 seconds, or until hot; stir thoroughly. Microwave for another 10 seconds, or until cheese has fully melted. Mix well and immediately spoon over the veggies.
<br>
<br>Finish off your burger with the top half of the bun. Now enjoy!
