Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup mushrooms (cremini or button), sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari (for a gluten-free option)

1 tablespoon cream cheese (or vegan cream cheese for a dairy-free option)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread

Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, fresh herbs (like parsley or chives), microgreens

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mushrooms: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté them for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are soft and release their moisture. Stir in the minced garlic and soy sauce, cooking for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

    Make the Avocado Smash: In a mixing bowl, scoop out the ripe avocados. Add the cream cheese, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Use a fork to mash the avocado mixture until creamy but still slightly chunky. Adjust seasoning to taste.

      Toast the Bread: While the mushrooms cool, toast the slices of bread until golden brown and crispy.

        Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous layer of the creamy avocado mixture onto each slice of toasted bread. Top with the sautéed mushrooms.

          Garnish and Serve: Finish with your choice of toppings, such as red pepper flakes for a kick, fresh herbs for a burst of flavor, or microgreens for a vibrant touch.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately while the toast is warm and enjoy this flavorful, creamy delight!
