Garlic mushrooms on toast
My daughter’s love for mushrooms inspired me to make this great tasting appetizer. This dish is so simple to prepare and looks great if you use a variety of mushrooms for shape and texture. Serve the mushrooms on a ciabatta or whole wheat toast, if you prefer.
Tip: Wipe the mushrooms with a wet paper towel than washing otherwise they absorb water and the dish loses its crispiness.
