CHANTRELLE MUSHROOM AND BACON TOAST

CHANTRELLE MUSHROOM AND BACON TOAST

 

Whenever I go to the grocery store I pass by the mushroom section and I always want to load a bag up full of mushrooms, but then I look at the cost per pound and I am like damn! The other day my local grocery store was having a sale on wild mushrooms and I was like this is my chance!!! So I bought over a pound of wild mushrooms and it cost me around $5 instead of $20. This was my chance to recreate the mushroom toast I used to get at my favorite Brooklyn restaurant Mayfield. 

If you don't want to pay cost for wild mushrooms substitute with portabello mushrooms.

 

ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 slices of bacon, chopped
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 pound fresh chanterelles
1 tablespoon chopped flat leaf parsley

Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Evenly spoon the chanterelles over the 4 pieces of toasted bread.
