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.

A young couple got married. When the wife prepared to bake a ham to celebrate their first Thanksgiving, she carefully cut off each end before placing it in the pan.Her husband asked her why she did that and she replied, "I don`t know - it`s what my mother always did. But I can ask her."She called Mom, who responded, "I always saw your Grandma do it, so I did the same."They decided to check further, so the young woman called Grandma, who explained, "It was the only way I could get it to fit into my pan."
