How to Make Portabella Mushroom Bruschetta

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Toast 4 slices of your favorite bread until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. While still warm, rub each slice lightly with a cut garlic clove.
  3. Coarsely chop 1 pound of portabella mushrooms.
  4. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots and 2 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until all liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  7. Remove skillet from heat and keep mushrooms warm, covered.
  8. (Optional) This can be made ahead, refrigerated, and reheated before serving.
  9. **Tomato Relish:** Quarter 2 large tomatoes (about 1 pint).
  10. Combine the quartered tomatoes with 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  11. Season the relish with salt and pepper to taste and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (longer is better!).
  12. Top each toasted bread slice with a generous portion of the sauteed mushrooms and tomato relish.
  13. Shave fresh Parmesan cheese over the top using a vegetable peeler.
  14. Garnish with extra fresh basil leaves.
