💡 Chef’s Tips
Use sourdough bread for extra crunch and flavor.
Cook the mushrooms over medium-high heat to achieve a rich golden color instead of steaming them.
Add crumbled feta or goat cheese for a creamy, tangy finish.
A drizzle of balsamic glaze or hot honey adds an extra layer of flavor.
🧊 Storage
Refrigerator: Store the mushroom-spinach mixture in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
For the best texture, toast the bread and cook the eggs fresh before serving.
