Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
2 large onions (white, yellow, and red all work; 3 small onions)
1/2 teaspoon salt
16 ounces baby bella or white mushrooms (thickly sliced)
1 red bell pepper, sliced (sliced)
1 green bell pepper (sliced)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dry oregano
4 6" sub rolls
4 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

To make the caramelized onions: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute the sliced onions for 6-8 minutes, until lightly browned. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and lower the heat to medium-low. Stir the onions only every 9-10 minutes. They're ready when golden brown and sweet, which can take up to an hour.
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and peppers and saute until the mushrooms release most of their juices, about 7-8 minutes.
Sprinkle mushrooms with soy sauce and oregano. To thicken the mushrooms and their juices, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of flour, stirring to brown.
Melt the provolone cheese by placing each slice over a section of mushrooms and peppers. Cover the pan with a lid to melt.
Scoop the melted cheese and mushrooms onto a toasted sub roll. Top with caramelized onions and enjoy!

Ingredients

3 Tbsp. canola oil, divided
1 lb. mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, and king oyster), sliced
½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chopped onion
6 Tbsp. Vegan Beer-Cheese Sauce
2 6" soft hoagie rolls, warmed but not toasted, split

Steps:

Heat a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over high heat, then add 2 Tbsp. canola oil. Add 1 lb. mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, and king oyster), sliced, ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt, and ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are browned and any liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
