Mixed Mushroom Toast
Sautéed Mushrooms on Toast make the perfect meal any time of the day. Top with a perfectly fried egg for a savory vegetarian meal in 30 minutes.
Our Mushroom Toast recipe is made with three kinds of mushrooms for a hearty and satisfying meal. My version is not a creamy mushroom toast, but one that is cleaner and flavored with fresh herbs and white wine. Like our Roasted Tomato Quiche or Five Cheese Soufflé, it tastes great any time of the day: breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Hint: The perfect complement to Mushrooms on Toast is a Bloody Mary, made with our Homemade Bloody Mary Mix.

Top tip
Sourdough bread (white or wheat) works best for this recipe because it is soft on the inside and has a nice crunchy crust.
Variations
- NO WHITE WINE? Substitute chicken broth.
- EGG OPTIONS: We like this recipe with a sunny side up egg, but it also works with scrambled eggs, poached eggs, or eggs over medium.
- TRUFFLE EGGS: drizzle with truffle oil for maximum flavor
- CREAMY MUSHROOM TOAST: top mushrooms with a dollop of Crème Fraîche or ricotta.
- MAKE IT CHEESY: top with freshly grated parmesan cheese
- FRESH THYME can be used instead of parsley.
