Mushrooms on toast

Sauté fresh oyster mushrooms in a generous amount of butter. Add cracked black pepper to your taste and a little lemon juice to enhance the mushroom flavour. Serve on toast, or a bed of English spinach when in season. Great recipe for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Can substitute Swiss Brown mushrooms for the oyster mushrooms.
