Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Slice the onion into thin strips and chop the mushrooms. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for about 3 minutes until it becomes translucent. Then, add the mushrooms and cook for another 4-5 minutes until they are tender. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Cooking the Impossible Meat

  1. 3

    Cook the Impossible Burger

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the Impossible Burger, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and heated through.

  2. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the Impossible Burger is cooked, return the sautéed onions and mushrooms back to the skillet and mix well. Allow them to cook together for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined and heated.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Melt the Cheese

    Lay the cheese slices over the cooked Impossible meat mixture in the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

  2. 6

    Build the Sandwich

    Cut the sub rolls in half and gently toast them if desired. Spoon the cheesy Impossible meat mixture onto the bottom half of each roll. Place the top half of the roll over the filling.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the Impossible Cheesesteak warm and enjoy!
