THE PHILLY CHEESESTEAK
Craving a good, hearty sandwich? Sink your teeth into this healthier version of an American classic
INGREDIENTS
>> 3 medium onions, sliced thin
>> 2 green or red sweet bell peppers (or combination), cored, seeded and sliced thin
>> 1 cup thinly sliced mushrooms
>> 1 tsp. garlic powder
>> Salt and pepper
>> 2 lbs. extra-lean beef tenderloin (9% fat), sliced thin
>> 6 slices fat free cheese (1 oz. each)
Goal: Mass-building
When to Eat It: At lunch or dinner during a mass-gaining phase
How to Make It: In a large skillet coated with nonstick cooking spray, sauté onions, bell peppers and mushrooms over medium heat. Add garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste; stir to combine. Transfer mixture to a small bowl, cover and set aside. In the same skillet, pan-fry the sliced tenderloin until brown but not crispy. Add vegetable mixture back to skillet; mix well. Place cheese on meat-vege-table mixture and heat until slightly melted. Spoon atop split rolls.
Side dish: To ramp up the carbs for further mass-building, serve with a baked potato.
