Philly Cheese Steak Recipe

Ingredients:
- 1 lb lean flank steak, cut into 8 thin slices
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium sized green bell pepper, thinly sliced and de-seeded
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 tsp table salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 4 high fiber sandwich rolls (between 90-140 calories each)
- 4 slices fat free American cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a large nonstick skillet with non-fat cooking spray and sauté onions and green peppers over medium high heat until tender and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove onions & green peppers from pan; set aside. Add steak slices to skillet and sauté until browned and cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper; cook until liquid is absorbed. Divide steak evenly between 4 buns and top each sandwich with onions, peppers and a slice of cheese. (I sliced my cheese in half to make it easier to cover the whole length of the sandwich. Wrap in foil, transfer to oven and bake until cheese melts, about 5 minutes.

Fried fish sandwiches are SO incredibly good. But typically, they are dripping with grease and loaded with extra and unnecessary fat and calories. So when I found this Weight Watchers Fish Sandwich Recipe for the Momentum Plan, I was really excited to give it a try! I made a few alterations to it, knocked a whole Point off the original recipe and added more fiber. And it turned out really, really GOOD!!! It’s technically not “fried” – it’s a baked fish sandwich recipe. But it delivers a very similar (if not, better) taste and has a LOT less fat and calories. Plus the fact that it packs in so much protein and fiber makes it an excellent Momentum Recipe to incorporate into your Weight Watchers New Year’s Diet Plan! Serve it up with some tasty 1 Point Butternut Squash French Fries, and you’ve got yourself one AMAZINGLY yummy low Weight Watchers Points meal!

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
