Healthy Vegetable Toast with Garlic, Mushrooms & Cheese
Vegetable toast with cheese is one of my favourite quick, healthy, and filling meals. I like to use wholegrain chia bread, mushrooms, peppers, onions, tomatoes, garlic, a splash of soy sauce, and some grated cheese on top. It’s perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a light dinner.
