Serving Size: 1 sandwich

Ingredients

  • 1 medium onion, cut into slices or rings
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 pound lean steak, sliced into strips
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 1/4 cups spinach
  • 5 whole wheat hamburger buns

Instructions

  1. Heat a small pan to medium. Spray with nonstick cooking spray. Add onions and sprinkle with sugar. Cook for 5–7 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove onions from pan. Cover with foil to keep warm.
  2. Put the steak in the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook the steak on both sides until heated through to 145°F.
  3. Place 1/4 cup spinach on one side of the hamburger bun.
  4. Place 1/5 of the steak on top of the spinach.
  5. Place 1/4 cup caramelized onions on top of the steak.
  6. Top with other half of bun.

Tips

When it is nice outside, grill the steaks instead of frying.

Toast the buns right before putting the sandwiches together.

Use the leftover spinach to make a Whole Meal Salad.

Add cheese to make it like a Philly cheesesteak sandwich.
