Ingredients

For the Cheesesteaks:

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 1 green bell pepper (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• 4 hoagie rolls (or sub rolls)

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Beef and Vegetables

3. Add Cheese: Top each filled roll with 2 slices of provolone cheese or a generous amount of Cheez Whiz.
