Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

cooking spray

1 1/2 pounds tempeh or seitan -- thinly sliced

1 red bell pepper -- thinly sliced

1 green bell pepper -- thinly sliced

1 medium onion -- cut in half, vertically and thinly sliced

2 fat-free French baguettes

8 ounces fat-free mozzarella-style soy cheese -- thinly sliced

catsup or mustard to taste

 

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

 

Spray a large sauté pan once with cooking spray. Heat pan over medium heat, add

tempeh or seitan and cook for 1 minute on each side. Transfer slices to a plate.

 

Spray the pan once again with cooking spray. Cook peppers and onions over

medium-low heat, stirring often, until soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

 

Slice baguettes into thirds. Slice each section in half horizontally, open and

place on a baking sheet. Divide the seitan or tempeh, pepper mixture and soy

cheese equally among the breads.

 

Bake until cheese melts, about 15 minutes.

 

Smear with catsup or mustard as desired and press sandwiches closed.

NOTES : Although tempeh, a soy food, does contain some fat, it is rich in

beneficial soy isoflavones. If you make the cheese steaks with seitan, a

wheat-based product, the fat drops to 2.6 grams per sandwich. Try it both ways

to see which version you like best. Either way is far healthier than a typical

Philly cheese steak with its 680 calories and 35 grams of fat.
