Creamy Mushrooms on Toast
I have a serious love for mushrooms, and if you were to saute a pile of them for me, I’d be one happy foodie! So by taking them a step further, and adding a bit of cream to them – oh dear, help me!
Creamy Mushrooms are so versatile and are brilliant used as a topping over baked potatoes, a lovely steak or baked chicken, and are swoon worthy tossed into your favorite pasta!
I love that you can serve this recipe just as happily along with a posh meal, as you can with a humble piece of toast.
For every day cooking, I prefer to use baby Bella mushrooms. To me, Bella’s have a more complex, nutty flavor than the white button variety. Of course, it’s all a matter of your own personal taste. So if you prefer, you can substitute the Bella’s for any type of mushroom that you enjoy.
