Method

In a shallow bowl combine biscuit mix, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Dip mushrooms in 2/3 cup of the salad dressing; dredge in biscuit mixture. Preheat oil in a large heavy skillet. Fry mushrooms for 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until nicely browned. Transfer mushrooms, stem sides down, to the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Place one slice of cheese on each mushroom cap. Broil until cheese is melted. Place a mushroom on the bottom of each Kaiser roll. Mix together shredded romaine, chopped tomato, and chopped avocado; divide evenly among sandwiches. Stir the ancho chili powder into the remaining 1/3 cup salad dressing; pour evenly over sandwiches. Top with roll tops.

 

Notes: This sandwich is hearty enough for any palate, meat-lovers and vegetarians alike.
