Equipment
- Food Processor
Ingredients
Mushroom Toast
- ½ cup cup white mushrooms (sliced)
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- ½ tsp Table Tasty Salt-Free Seasoning (see notes)
- 2 slices Ezekiel 4:9 Sesame Sprouted Whole Grain Bread (see notes)
Walnut Pesto Spread
- ½ cup walnuts
- ¼ cup nutritional yeast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ lemon (juiced)
- 1 clove garlic
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
For The Walnut Pesto Spread
- Blend all ingredients in a food processor. Leave the spread slightly chunky.
For The Mushroom Toast
- Heat up a pan over medium heat. Let it heat up for 3-5 minutes.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan (no oil). Mushrooms have a ton of water in them, so they will not stick to the pan.
- Let the mushrooms cook for 5-7 minutes, or until slightly browned. Add the red pepper flakes and salt-free seasoning. Cook for an additional minute or so.
- As the mushrooms are cooking, toast the bread to your liking.
- Spread a generous amount of walnut pesto onto each piece of toast. Top with mushrooms. Enjoy!
Notes
Table Tasty Salt-Free Seasoning is a great alternative to salt. I put it on almost everything!
Ezekiel is an amazing whole grain bread. It does not contain added sugar or preservatives. For best results, keep the bread frozen.
