Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole-grain bread
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Toast the whole-grain bread slices until golden brown. Set aside.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Clean and slice the cremini mushrooms. Add them to the skillet, cooking for 5–7 minutes until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Pour the low-sodium vegetable broth into the skillet, and stir in the fresh thyme, ground black pepper, and salt.
Reduce the heat to low, allowing the broth to simmer and reduce slightly, about 3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the Greek yogurt until well combined and creamy.
Finely chop fresh parsley and stir into the mushroom mixture.
Place the toasted bread on serving plates and top each slice with a generous amount of the creamy garlic mushroom mixture.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top before serving for added heart-healthy fats.
Garnish with extra parsley if desired and serve immediately.
