¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Freshly ground black pepper

8 small portobello mushrooms

Balsamic vinegar, for drizzling

Tamari, for drizzling

8 slider buns, toasted

1 tomato, sliced

½ cup microgreens or lettuce

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Equipment:

food processor

grill pan

grill

paper towels

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.

Food Trivia

The word vegetable has no scientific definition, so it’s still acceptable to call a tomato a vegetable.

Food Joke

A woman was walking down the street when she was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollars for some food. She got out her purse and took ten dollars out and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy wine with it instead of food?" "No, I had to stop drinking years ago", the homeless woman told her. "Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" she asked. "No, I don't waste time shopping," the homeless woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive." "Will you spend this in a beauty salon instead of food?" she asked. "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. "Ihaven't had my hair done in 20 years!" "Well," she said, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my husband and me tonight." The homeless woman was shocked. "Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting." The woman says, "That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and wine."
