Directions

  • Step one

    GARLIC BREAD: Preheat oven to 400°F. Stir together melted Earth Balance, 1 clove garlic and parsley in small bowl. Brush bread with garlic spread and place on baking sheet. Bake until toasted and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes, turning once.

  • Step two

    BURGERS: Melt 1 tablespoon Earth Balance in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and garlic to skillet and sauté until mushrooms are tender, about 3 minutes. Remove mushrooms from pan.

  • Step three

    Cook chickpea burgers in skillet according to package directions. Place burgers on garlic bread and top with pasta sauce, mushrooms, banana peppers and cheese. Bake until cheese is melted, about a minute. Top with second slice of garlic bread and serve your chickpea burgers with additional pasta sauce for dipping, if desired.
