One of the first sandwiches I ever ordered on my first trip to America - was a Philly Cheese Steak.
Now imagine fresh baked submarine bread roll , sliced down the middle lengthways, smothered with butter and stuffed with slivers of tender steak, caramelized onions and green peppers and topped with melted provolone cheese.
Sounds delicious, right? But not in the least bit Slimming World friendly.
So I introduce to you my syn free Philly Cheese Steak Toast Cups. These are divine!
I left out the green peppers, as my kids detest them and well I had to stop myself from being tempted into eating more than I should. So only made enough for the whole family. But if everyone in your family will eat green peppers, then definitely add those in, and well if they hate them, perhaps add them in anyway, that way it leaves more for you for leftovers tomorrow.
Stuck for ideas of what to serve alongside these? Then check out my side dishes for inspiration.
