Serves: 2 serves
Ingredients
- 1 T coconut oil or butter
- 12 large mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- ⅓ c full-fat coconut milk
- 2 t fresh thyme (or ½ t dried)
- 2 t fresh oregano (or ½ t dried)
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1 T nutritional yeast (optional)
- a large handful of spinach leaves, roughly chopped
- a large handful of fresh basil, finely chopped
Instructions
- To make the creamy coconut garlic mushrooms, heat the coconut oil or butter in a pan over medium-high heat. When melted, add the mushrooms and garlic. Sauté the mushrooms for about 3-5 minutes until they soften and begin to release their juices.
- Stir in the coconut milk, thyme, oregano, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to a simmer. Continue to cook for about another 3-5 minutes. Stir in the spinach leaves and basil and cook for another few minutes until just wilted.
- Lastly, stir in nutritional yeast if using. If you feel it needs a bit more sauce, add a dash more coconut milk as desired. Serve on grainy toast.
