Add the mushrooms to the caramelized onion and toss them to coat with oil for about 5 minutes.
3.Once the Pork is cooked through, transfer to a plate: cover loosely with foil and rest for 10 minutes before carving. Cut Pork into thin slices.
4. On four bread slices, layer the Pork, mushroom and onion mixture, spinach, top off with blue cheese dressing and with remaining bread. Coat outsides of sandwiches with cooking spray. Cook on a sandwich press for 3-4 minutes or until bread is lightly browned.
