Cooking instruction summary:
Make the pesto by combining the pepitas, garlic, cilantro, lemon juice, cumin, salt, honey (or maple) in a food processor. Pulse until combined. Drizzle in the olive oil and pulse until smooth. For a smoother pesto, you could add more olive oil, but I prefer a thicker consistency for these sliders. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Prepare the mushrooms by removing the stems and cleaning the caps with a damp cloth or paper towel. Place the mushrooms in a rimmed plate and drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, tamari, and pepper. Use your hands to help coat the mushrooms on both sides. Place the mushrooms, gill side down onto the grill pan. Cook about 10 minutes per side, or until mushrooms are tender. Place the mushrooms on the toasted buns and top each with a tomato slice, microgreens, and a generous slather of Pepita Pesto.
