Philly Steak & Cheese Recipe - The Easy Diet Plan Menus

The Easy Diet Plan - Weight Loss Plan #2 - Part 1 Here

This low fat, low calorie recipe for Philly Steak & cheese is very quick and easy and can be prepared with your favorite market foods.

If you're cooking for a group, add an assortment of breads, a plate of sliced tomatoes, lettuce, peppers and dipping sauce to the table if desired.

For this Philly Steak & Cheese recipe we used a French loaf that had been pre-sliced at the bakery that contained 40 calories per slice. This was not a reduced-calorie bread. Because the bread was so low in calories, we enjoyed 2 Philly Steak n Cheese sandwiches each.

Simply spray the bread on both sides with butter-flavored cooking spray and toast on the stove-top as you would buttered bread.  After bread turns a golden-brown, remove and place on serving plate.

Next, add the chopped onions and more cooking spray if needed.  When onions become translucent, add 1 slice of roast beef to one side of the pan, then flip after it is warm.  Top with a bit of the onions, then 1/2 slice of white American cheese.  We used the 70-calorie variety.  Next, simply create your sandwich by placing meat in between the toast.

If a more traditional Philly is desired, add 1/4 cup of bell peppers to the onions.

The bread may also be brushed with a bit of olive oil rather than the cooking spray, which also adds another level of healthy goodness to the sandwich for minimal calories.

Ingredients for Diet-Wise Philly Steak n Cheese

1 package of roast beef thinly sliced
bread
onions
white American cheese (or skimmed mozzarella)
butter flavored cooking spray
 

One Philly Steak n Cheese sandwich prepared with 40-calorie per slice French bread, 1/2 slice of cheese and onions, and roast beef contains about 150 calories. To calculate the calories in your Philly, simply add up the bread calories, the beef calories and the cheese calories.  If you use onions and bell peppers:

1/2 cup of onions: 30 calories
1/4 cup of bell pepper: 14 calories
