Pepper Ridge Sandwiches 

By Ann Esselstyn

Makes: 4-6 sandwiches

1 jar roasted red peppers, packed in water

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon oregano

1 teaspoon thyme

1 teaspoon rosemary

1 teaspoon basil

1-2 cloves garlic, minced

16 oz. barbecue sauce, your favorite

20 slices of portabella mushrooms

1 loaf Ezekiel Sprouted Grain Bread, GF bread

1 cup oil free hummus

1 bunch scallions, chopped, pickled red onions

Preheat oven to 400. Place mushroom slices on parchment-paper-lined sheet pan and brush with barbecue sauce. Cook for 30 minutes - or until cooked through.

Place roasted red peppers and their liquid in a bowl. Tear peppers into strips and add balsamic vinegar, oregano, thyme, rosemary, basil, and garlic.

Toast the bread.**  

Construct each sandwich by spreading hummus on one piece of toast.

Sprinkle a thin layer of scallions onto the hummus then add a layer of barbecued portabellas.
