Instructions

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.

Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Working in batches if necessary, add burger patties and cook, flipping once, until golden brown and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (or cook patties according to package instructions). Remove from heat.

Meanwhile, thinly slice half of the tomatoes and place on a large plate; season with salt. Medium dice remaining tomatoes and place in a large bowl.

Trim, seed, and medium dice bell peppers. Add to the bowl with the tomato.

Separate lettuce into leaves. Set aside one leaf per burger, adding them to the plate with the sliced tomato. Chop (or tear) remaining leaves into bite-sized pieces and add to the bowl.

Roughly chop olives. Add to the bowl, along with the vinaigrette, and toss to combine the salad. Set aside.

Toast buns if desired.

Spread top and bottom halves of each bun with hummus. Layer the bottom halves with lettuce, tomato, and burger patties, then close with the top half of each bun.

To serve, divide burgers and salad between plates. Enjoy!
