Fix Approved Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers

A healthy take on this Philly favorite, my Fix Approved Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers were a huge winner at our house last night. My (bread-loving) husband thought it was delicious and didn’t (SEEM) to mind that there wasn’t a bun. I typically have sandwiches with out the bun (so is it REALLY still a sandwich??) anyway so this was right up my alley.  If you are like my good friend, Mandy, and dislike (HATE) mushrooms, I would suggest swapping out the mushrooms with some thinly sliced and halved zucchini – just replace the word mushroom with zucchini in the recipe. 🙂

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large green bell peppers
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 oz mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper diced
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • 1 lb flank steak or flat iron steak thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 slices Provolone cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray an 8x8 baking dish with olive oil, set aside
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil.
  3. Slice green peppers in half, remove seeds and ribs and place them int he boiling water for 3-5 minutes until they are tender. Remove peppers from the water (be careful!!) Place cut side down on a towel and let water drain.
  4. In a 12" skillet, heat olive oil on medium. Add garlic, onion, mushrooms, red bell pepper, sea salt & pepper. Saute 4-5 minutes until onions are translucent.
  5. Add steak slices and Worcestershire sauce and cook until meat is cooked to your liking
  6. Place green peppers open side up in your baking dish. Fill each pepper with meat mixture until they are overflowing. Top with slice of cheese.
  7. Bake in oven for 10 minutes until cheese is golden brown. Serve hot!
  8. I topped mine with some leftover sauteed onions

Notes

Cut the cheese slice in half and line the bottom of the pepper with half, fill with meat mixture and then top with the other half.
If you are needing to get another starch, serve with some brown rice OR add some brown rice to your pepper!
