Cooking Steps

Cook sausage mixture
1
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then onions and sausage. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.** Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add marinara, pesto, half the vinegar and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until fragrant and slightly thickened.
Prep and make dressing
2
  • Meanwhile, halve tomatoes.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining vinegar, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. (NOTE: This is your salad dressing!)
Toast buns
3
  • On a foil-lined baking sheet, arrange buns cut-sides up.
  • Spread buns with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter.
  • Broil buns for 1-2 min, in the middle of the oven, until toasted. (TIP: Keep an eye on buns so they don't burn!)
Finish and serve
4
  • Divide sausage mixture between bottom buns. Sprinkle half the Parmesan over top and return to the oven.
  • Broil bottom buns for 1-2 min, in the middle of the oven, until cheese melts slightly.
  • When done, place top buns over top.
  • To the bowl with dresssing (from step 2), add tomatoes and arugula and spinach mix. Toss to coat.
  • Divide sandwiches and salad between plates.
  • Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over salad.
