Meat-free Monday..Herby baked mushrooms and sour dough bruschetta, Lay The Table

I had this for breakfast this morning. It doesnt look much and  is probably the easiest thing Ive cooked for a while but also one of the tastiest. 

Serves 1-2

2 portobello mushrooms
50g softened butter
1 tsp mixed herbs
1 tsp Dijon mustard
Pinch of sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2-4 slices of sour dough bread
1 garlic clove, peeled and bashed to release the oils
Extra virgin olive oil, to drizzle

1. Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4.

2. In a small bowl, mix the butter, herbs, mustard, salt and pepper.

3. Remove the woody stalk from the mushrooms and lay them upside down in a baking dish.

5. Meanwhile, toast the bread, then rub each slice with the garlic and drizzle with olive oil.

6. Remove the mushrooms from the oven and lay onto a slice of toast. Drizzle over the juices collected at the bottom of the dish.
