4. Arrange bread slices on one side of baking sheet, then place mushroom loaf slices on the other side. Spray the tops of both with a layer of olive oil spray.

5. Broil bread and mushroom loaf 2 minutes, then remove baking sheet from oven and carefully flip all pieces. Spritz again with a layer of olive oil spray and return baking sheet to oven.

6. Broil 1-2 minutes more, watching carefully, until bread begins to crisp along the edges.

7. Remove baking sheet from oven but leave all ingredients are baking sheet (you will have to broil the sandwiches again once assembled).
