"Any type mushrooms can be used in this recipe, I find mixing in some swiss brown adds a perfect flavour for this dish. Great for breakie, brunch, lunch or even dinner and better still....... its so quick and easy. If you prefer you can grill or even toast the bread without the oil and I also have used bacon instead of chorizo at times."

Great little lunch for the DH and I. Toasted sour dough under the grill and the only change I made was to add the butter to cook the mushrooms in with the oil that chorizo was cooked in to give the mushrooms the flavour. I served mine as suggested but the DH prefers to serve his on the side of his bread. As was I couldn't get through the second slice of sourdough but ate up all the mushrooms. Thanks Tisme, made for Aussie.Kiwi Recipe Swap #43 August 2010.
