Instructions
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat grill to 400°F over medium heat. Halve cherry tomatoes. Core, then cut peppers into 1/4-inch slices. Whisk together vinegar, 1/2 tsp sugar and 1 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4ppl) in a large bowl. Set aside. Combine sausage and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl. Form sausage mixture into two 4-inch wide burger patties (4 patties for 4 ppl). Set aside. Halve buns.
Arrange peppers and onions on one side of a 18x12-inch piece of foil. Drizzle with 1 tbsp oil. Season with salt and pepper. Fold foil in half over veggie mixture and pinch to seal pouch (NOTE: Make 2 pouches for 4ppl, using 1 tbsp oil per pouch). Place pouch on one side of grill and grill until tender, 12-14 min.
Add burger patties to other side of grill and grill, flipping once, until cooked through, 5-6 min per side.** When patties are almost done, carefully sprinkle with cheese. Add bun halves to grill, cut side-down. Close lid and grill until buns are warmed through and cheese melts, 2-3 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on your buns so that they don't burn!)
While patties cook, add marinara and 1 tsp sugar (dbl for 4ppl) to a small pot. Season with pepper. Place pot on grill, close lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 5-6 min. Carefully remove pot from grill, cover and set aside. (NOTE: Pot handle will be very hot.) (You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the sauce! Stir together in a bowl instead.)
Carefully open foil pouch. Add arugula-spinach mix and tomatoes to the large bowl with dressing. Toss to combine. Spread marinara between bun halves. Top bottom buns with patties and veggies. Finish with top buns. Divide burgers and salad between plates.
