Ingredients
  

For the Mushroom Mixture
  • 1 tsp rapeseed oil
  • 80 g button mushrooms, roughly chopped Use fresh mushrooms for the best flavor.
  • 32 g reduced-fat smoked bacon medallion, roughly chopped Can be substituted with vegetarian options like sautéed spinach.
  • 2 stalks spring onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • ½ small lemon, juice only
  • 1 level tbsp half-fat crème fraîche Can be replaced with dairy-free options.
  • 30 g slice wholemeal or granary bread Toast before serving.
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives (optional) Add for extra flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat the oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the mushrooms, bacon, spring onions, and garlic. Cook for 1–2 minutes.
  3. Pour in the lemon juice. Cover with a lid and cook on low heat for 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are cooked.
  4. Remove from heat. Stir in the crème fraîche and chives, if using. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Toast the bread on both sides. Place it on a warmed plate and top with the mushroom mixture.

Notes

If you have leftovers, store the mushroom mixture in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. The toast should be eaten fresh, but you can always make more when you are ready to enjoy it again.
