I love sauteed onions and peppers. I'm really not sure why, but I just love them. I'm always trying to find ways to incorporate them into a meal (even breakfast!). I love Philly Cheesesteaks, but I think it's a huge pain to try to prepare the meat (buy it, wrap it, freeze it, shave it - in theory)... so, how could I eat onions and peppers without having to make a philly cheesesteak?
The answer came to me in a culinary vision: Philly Cheesesteak BURGERS. Why haven't I ever heard of these before?! Anyway, they're delicious. Relatively easy, pretty messy - but what delicious food isn't?!
Give these a try! Saute a big pan of onions, peppers, and mushrooms - whichever type you prefer. (I used yellow onions, green bell pepper, and cremini mushrooms.) Make yourself a burger in whatever manner you prefer (I broil them with a touch of Montreal Steak Seasoning), and add provolone cheese on top. Toast your buns, and prep them for the burger - I think every Philly should have mayo, lettuce, and tomato, but I really like my veggies. Assemble the burger and enjoy. I served it with fresh boiled corn on the cob and it was a gigantic hit!
I feel the same way about a sauteed pepper/onion/mushroom mix. I made some really good breakfast burritos with them the other day. after a real quick saute I added eggs and briefly scrambled them. I steam the tortilla on the same pan while the eggs scramble. then, once I scoop the eggs/mix onto the tortilla, I quickly fry some smashed tater tots. add those and salsa and cheddar and you have quite a delicious breakfast. Give it a try. you will enjoy.
