Author Notes

This is one of those recipes I found irresistible whilst on the road in California in the fall. A breakfast out with the kids in Ojai brought me to this grounding pairing of mushrooms (very seasonal), with cheese and a creamy sauce on toast. It is very moreish but a bit too heavy due to the dairy products. I was determined to make it vegan style and fuse in some digestive spices in order to make my version lighter and more digestible. Here it is for the first time to share with you all. —Amrita Ma Devi
