CREAMY MUSHROOMS ON TOAST

CREAMY MUSHROOMS ON TOAST
Creamy mushrooms on toast using chestnut mushrooms makes for a very decadent light lunch.
This recipe had such a depth of flavour, finished with creme fraiche and lots of fresh parsley for a luxurious taste.
The recipe from Waitrose can be found HERE.
Most recipes call for sourdough bread, but we used what we had. We may try toasted brioche next time too.
The recipe calls for dried mushrooms which we used here and this certainly helps beef up the flavour,  however not all recipes add dried mushrooms so why not experiment.
Despite using creme fraiche this substantial and satisfying serving comes in around 400 calories. We have maintained our weight loss philosophy - to eat all types of food - and this has helped us maintain our weight.
Here's a link to our very first blog post about our weight loss journey, which began in January 2011. We started this blog as a way of recording what we ate while losing weight. There were no restrictions. The blog is a food diary, and contains lots of recipes, tips and ideas about losing weight. Do you know how many calories you can eat each day?
