Just as good as the original, but made with meat-free seitan

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 1/2 lbs. tempeh or seitan (wheat meat), thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, cut in half vertically and thinly sliced
  • 2 fat-free French baguettes
  • 8 oz. (240 g) fat-free mozzarella-style soy cheese, thinly sliced
  • Catsup or mustard to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a large sauté pan once with cooking spray. Heat pan over medium heat, add tempeh or seitan and cook for 1 minute on each side. Transfer slices to a plate. Spray the pan once again with cooking spray. Cook peppers and onions over medium-low heat, stirring often, until soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside. Slice baguettes into thirds. Slice each section in half horizontally, open and place on a baking sheet. Divide the seitan or tempeh, pepper mixture and soy cheese equally among the breads. Bake until cheese melts, about 15 minutes. Smear with catsup or mustard as desired and press sandwiches closed.
