  • 1 package (8 ounces) pasteurized prepared cheese product loaf, diced (2 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
  • 1 small onion, chopped (1/4 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 12 sandwich buns, split

Steps

  • 1
    Cook beef and garlic pepper in 12-inch skillet over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain.

    Cover and cook on Low heat setting 6 to 7 hours. To serve, fill buns with beef mixture.

  • Ground turkey or pork instead of the ground beef is a nice change for these sandwiches.
  • These sandwiches are great for casual get-togethers or tailgating. Serve with chips and a tray of raw veggies and dip. Top off the meal with brownies.
  • Garlic pepper is a zesty blend of garlic powder and cracked pepper. Look for it with the other spices at your supermarket.
