Fire Roasted Tomato Hummus and Portobello Sandwich

So, my BFF and I went to Savannah, GA this past weekend for a mini vacation and we found this restaurant, Zunzi’s, that served delicious sandwiches.  I had a sandwich very similar to this.  It also had hummus and veggies in a delicious, toasted, crusty bread.

I was craving that sandwich today, so I made it for lunch….I just kinda improvised, since I don’t know what seasonings they used.

It is so flavorful and delicious!   And, as always, it is healthy and filling!
