Ingredients

• 8 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced (such as cremini or button mushrooms)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or vegan butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 slices of bread (your choice: sourdough, whole grain, or gluten-free)
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, use vegan cheese for a dairy-free option)
• Fresh herbs for garnish (optional, such as parsley or thyme)

Instructions

1. Sauté Mushrooms: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.
2. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Toast Bread: While the mushrooms are cooking, toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a separate skillet until golden brown.
4. Assemble Sandwich: Place a generous portion of the sautéed mushrooms on two slices of toasted bread. If using, sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
5. Melt Cheese: Place the other two slices of bread on top and return the sandwiches to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is crispy and the cheese is melted.
6. Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and slice in half. Serve warm.
