• 1 medium Zucchini
• 1 medium Red onion
• 2 large Portobello mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 slices Mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Arugula
• 0.5 cup Chipotle mayo
• 0.25 cup Pickled jalapeños

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the bell peppers, zucchini, red onion, and Portobello mushrooms into thin strips.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the sliced vegetables with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Sauté or grill the vegetables for 6-8 minutes until they are slightly charred and tender. Set aside.

Step 5

Slice the hoagie rolls in half lengthwise, leaving one side connected to form a hinge. Place them on a baking sheet.

Step 6

Spread a thin layer of chipotle mayo on the inside of each hoagie roll. Place 1 slice of mozzarella cheese inside each roll.

Step 7

Bake the hoagie rolls in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the rolls are warm and slightly toasty.

Step 8

Remove the hoagie rolls from the oven and layer the sautéed vegetables evenly in each roll.

Step 9

Top the vegetables with a handful of arugula and a few slices of pickled jalapeños.

Step 10

Serve the hoagies warm with extra chipotle mayo on the side if desired. Enjoy!
