Vegan Philly Cheesesteak

Grab these simple ingredients the next you’re at the supermarket. See the recipe card at the bottom of this post for full ingredients, instructions, and accurate nutritional information (to the best of my ability; please consult your physician or healthcare professional if you have specific dietary needs). I give substitutions for some of the main ingredients in the next section, so most people can still make this recipe! Grab these simple ingredients the next you’re at the supermarket.

1 Batch ZardyPlants Beef Seitan: My homemade Instant Pot seitan (you can do it stovetop too) is a fantastic meat substitute and really mimics the flavor and texture of the meat in a classic Philly cheesesteak. There are alternatives, though, so check the next section if that applies to you.

¼ Cup Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce: Add extra flavor and moisture to your carved up seitan.

2 Medium White Onions: This is to make the caramelized onions, which I highly recommend you do not skip!

2 Green Bell Peppers, Optional: Some people are absolutely pro sautéed peppers on their vegan Philly cheesesteak sandwiches and I am one of them. If you are not, skip it! I've seen arguments even in regards to traditional cheesesteak sandwiches, so it's really a personal decision.

16 Ounces White Button Mushrooms, Optional: Not everyone loves mushrooms so you can leave this part out if you like.

1 Batch ZardyPlants Vegan Provolone: Since it's so delicious AND quick to make, I highly recommend using my homemade vegan cheese sauce. Just make my homemade vegan mozzarella sauce and all you have to do to make it taste like provolone is omit the onion powder and increase the garlic powder to a full tablespoon.

6 Sub Rolls / Hoagie Buns: I got my incredible hoagie rolls from a local Italian grocery store that bakes their own (I verified they were vegan!).
