Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

200g (7 oz) mixed mushrooms (e.g., shiitake, cremini, and oyster), cleaned and sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

Salt and pepper to taste

4 slices of rustic bread (sourdough or whole grain recommended)

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Fresh microgreens or arugula for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are soft and golden brown.

    Add Flavor: Stir in the minced garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Drizzle in the balsamic vinegar, and toss to combine. Remove from heat.

      Toast the Bread: While the mushrooms are cooking, toast the slices of rustic bread in a toaster or on a grill until golden brown and crispy.

        Prepare the Avocado: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with a fork. Stir in the lemon juice and a pinch of salt for flavor.

          Assemble the Toasts: Spread a generous layer of the mashed avocado onto each slice of toasted bread. Top with the sautéed mushrooms, ensuring an even distribution.

            Garnish: Finish with a sprinkle of fresh microgreens or arugula for a delightful crunch and freshness.

              Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Mushroom Avocado Toast immediately while the mushrooms are warm for a delicious brunch or snack!
