Want to impress your guests with a simple, but elegant hors d'oeuvre? Then try our upscale bruschetta, which easily goes from your kitchen to a party table in just under 30 minutes. A mixture of shallots, minced garlic, dried shiitake mushrooms, uncooked oyster mushrooms, and chopped walnuts gets combined for an earthy, flavorful topping. Before spooning that combination on the slices of French baguette bread, toast and rub them with garlic. For a finishing touch at the end, sprinkle raw sage that has been thinly sliced on top. Serve the bruschetta immediately, sit back, and enjoy the many glowing compliments you'll definitely receive!

Ingredients

Shallot

2 medium, minced

Garlic

2 clove(s), minced

Dried shiitake mushroom

4 oz, trimmed and thinly sliced

Oyster mushroom

4 oz, or porcini, trimmed and thinly sliced

Chopped walnuts

1 Tbsp, toasted

6 oz, cut into 12 slices and toasted

Garlic

1 clove(s), halved

Black pepper

Raw sage

oz, about 2 tablespoons, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. Add shallots and minced garlic; cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Increase heat to medium-high and add mushrooms; cook until wilted and still a little moist, about 3 to 4 minutes. Off heat, stir in walnuts, salt and pepper.
