MUSHROOM AND SUN DRIED TOMATO BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and add the onion until slightly golden.
• Add the chopped mushrooms, chopped sun dried tomatoes and balsamic vinegar to the pan (if using dried sun dried tomatoes then soak in boiling water for 10minutes prior to cooking to release the flavour). Cook until the mushrooms are soft.
• Meanwhile lightly grill or toast the bread until golden on both sides and place on a plate to serve.
• Add the spinach and basil to the pan stirring through until the spinach has wilted.
• Spoon the mushroom mixture on top of the bread evenly. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
• Tip - if you would prefer a sweeter more decorative drizzle then you can make a balsamic glaze. Empty a bottle of balsamic vinegar into a saucepan and bring to the boil, the bring to a simmer continuing to heat until the vinegar sticks to the back of a spoon. Allow to cool, if the consistency is too thick then you can add boiling water and place in the microwave to get the desired consistency.
