Easy enough to make in your own kitchen, next time you and your family are craving cheesesteak sandwiches try these simple and tasty ones at home.

Easy Cheesesteak Sandwiches

Yield: 4-6 servings

Ingredients:

2 lbs thinly sliced top round steak (original recipe used skirt steak, but my store did not have)
1 teaspoon oil
8 oz package sliced mushrooms, coarsly chopped
1 small onion, thinly sliced, then coarsly chopped
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced, then coarsly chopped
big pinch steak seasoning or coarse salt and pepper
4-6 Italian sub rolls
sliced American or Provolone cheese

Directions:

Place steak into freezer for about an hour to make for easier cutting. Once firm and hard, take out of freezer and stack on a cutting board, giving the meat a rough chop.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare your sandwich bread by slicing longways.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, peppers and onions to pan and cook until soft and browned, about 5-8 minutes. When done, place aside on plate.
Add your coarsly chopped meat to pan and cook over medium-high heat until starting to brown, about 4-5 minutes. Season with steak seasoning or salt and pepper. Add vegetables back into pan and combine. You may have to work in 2 batches if your pan does not fit all the meat and vegetables at once. Once all the meat and veggies are cooked up, drain well in a colander. Once drained place meat and vegetable mixture back into pan to keep warm.
When ready to make sandwiches, spoon meat and veggie mixture generously into each roll. Place rolls side by side on a large baking sheet. Top with sliced American cheese and place in oven until cheese melts completely, about 2 minutes. Serve with homemade baked fries and enjoy!
