Make

  1. Heat oven to 350F / 177C. Open up buns and place onto a sheet pan. Arrange cheese onto buns. Bake buns in the oven until cheese is melted, 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and cooking oil and then onions to melted butter with some salt. Saute for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly caramelized. If the pan ever looks too dry, add a splash of water.
  3. Next add portobellos and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add green peppers and soy sauce. Saute until veggies are tender but still have a bite, another 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Spread hummus onto buns and then divide up filling into toasted buns. Toss dressing with lettuce, tomatoes, and green onions. Enjoy salad on the side!
