Roasted mushroom, onion and snow pea crostini
A simple but delicious healthy lunch or dinner, made with a handful of fresh ingredients, and ready in about 20 minutes or so. Can be made for 1 serving or doubled for 4 servings.
Ingredients
- 1 medium-size onion minced
- 16 oz organic mushrooms I recommend shiitake, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 handfuls of fresh snow peas trimmed
- extra-virgin olive oil for cooking
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1/2 tsp rosemary optional
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 4 pieces crusty organic bread toasted
Instructions
-
Warm a large pan on medium heat. Chop your onion and slice the mushrooms while waiting for the pan to warm up. When warm, drizzle a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil and the chopped onion, cook for a few minutes until they start being translucent. Continue slicing the rest of the mushrooms while waiting.
-
Add the mushrooms to the pan. Sauté everything for about 8-10 minutes or until the mushrooms start getting roasted to your liking. Mix in the thyme and rosemary (if using), snow peas and minced garlic, cover with a lid and cook for a few more minutes, mixing every 45 seconds or so (you might need to add a bit more olive oil if it's too dry).
-
Toast your bread while the mixture is cooking. Mix in sea salt and pepper to the mushroom pan.
-
Plate everything by topping each toast with the mushroom mixture. Serve immediately.
