Asparagus Mushroom Toast

This Asparagus and Mushroom Toast is the perfect thing to jump start your day.

Breakfast is my favorite meal to cook. Luckily, it is my favorite meal to eat as well!

Cooking for the ones I love on the weekend fills me with so much joy.

Spring is finally starting to show itself here in the Hudson Valley.

The temperature is finally in the 40s-50s, which is what we like to call warm up in New York.

The warmer weather has almost instinctively brought me to the asparagus and sugar snap peas in the grocery store.

Lately, I’ve been buying produce and other items, such as a whole chicken, just because.

When I got home, I thought to myself: “What am I going to do with all of this asparagus?”

I decided I’d roast it in a healthy dose of olive oil and minced garlic.

I also picked up a nice block of my favorite cheese from Kerry Gold, Reserve Cheddar Cheese. Oh, it is pure heaven.

The asparagus was directly next to some huge portabello mushrooms so I picked up the baby bella mushrooms sitting right next to them since they are so tiny and cute.

Their close proximity in the grocery store helped create this Asparagus and Mushroom Toast recipe.
