Who doesn't love a good cheese steak? But I am all set with over 750 calories in one sandwich. Many clock in at over 1000 calories, especially the particularly delicious ones from Mom & Pop sub shops. So rather than consume more than half my daily calories in just one sandwich, I like to make this lightened up version with chicken and a homemade cheese sauce. It's packed with flavor and veggies to bulk it up. Then serve it up on a toasted light sub roll and everyone is sure to be pleased.
