Vegan Cheesesteak
Report
This amazingly toothsome, creamy, smoky sandwich was inspired by the flavors and textures of a vegan cheesesteak. It’s a healthy version of the fast food favorite that doesn’t sacrifice an ounce of flavor. Make this delicious smoky soycurl meat and serve with me my 10 min cheese sauce!

Instructions
- Soak the soy curls, if you haven't already. Then, after 15 minutes, drain them and set aside. Reserve the soaking broth. Don't press them too much, you just want to remove some of the excess moisture and leave some moisture in the soycurls
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Once the skillet is hot, add the soy curls and cook and roast them for 2 to 4 minutes, until they start to turn golden on some of the edges.
- Then, add all of the spices, salt, and pepper and mix really well to coat the soy curls and cook for a minute
- Add the onion and bell pepper and another teaspoon of oil and cook until the onions are translucent, then add all of the sauces and mix well.
- Add in 2 to 4 tablespoons of reserved broth to help the mixture come together. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, then switch off the heat.
- Taste and adjust the flavor by adding more sauces and salt or heat etc., then prep your bread by toasting it up on a skillet with some butter or in a toaster.
- Top the bread it with a good helping of the cheese sauce, then this soy curl mixture, then more cheese sauce. You can add some chopped fresh herbs, like parsley or cilantro, if you like. Close the sandwich with the other half of the bread and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use my cashew nacho cheese sauce(pictured) Or my liquid mozzarella instead.
- Variation: You can make this sandwich with seitan, mushrooms, or tofu, as well. You don't need to soak any of these. Just add to a skillet, crisp up a little bit with the spices and add the onion, pepper and continue with the recipe as written from there.
- This recipe is naturally nut-free, as long as you use a nut-free cheese sauce.For gluten-free, choose gluten-free bread and use gluten-free sauces.
- Soyfree: use seitan or mushrooms instead of the soy curls. Also make sure that your sauces are soy-free.
- Nutritional information doesn't include cheese sauce, since the type and amount you use will vary.
