I’ve been treating myself for lunch this week, so figured today shouldn’t be any different. Besides treating myself I needed to use the mushrooms up, they had been in the fridge long enough. Mushrooms on toast is something I haven’t had for years. First time I had them was in the Paddock restaurant and I was surprised how good they were. Went there with an old friend who played football for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. It was a restaurant that was a favourite of the players. He told me I needed to try the mushrooms on toast. Since I like mushrooms a lot it wasn’t a stretch to order them. They were surprisingly simple and really good. So about once a month I would go to the Paddock for lunch. I have never seen them on another restaurant menu and after the Paddock closed I have only made it once before. Have no idea why I haven’t made it more often and today proved I needed to make them at least once or twice a year. If you like mushrooms this is a great lunch. Not much to the recipe and it cooks quickly

2 cloves garlic minced
2 green onions chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon water
2 slices rye toast
Preheat a frying pan on medium high heat, add mushrooms and water, cook until water has evaporated. Add butter, garlic, and green onions, cook for about 3 minutes stirring often. Spoon over good rye toast, even the butter and eat while hot.
