Health benefits of Mushroom and Goat Cheese Bruschetta Recipe | Myrecipes

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.

Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
1 small shallot, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
10 ounce fresh mushrooms, trimmed, coarsely chopped
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons lemon juice
16 slices French or Italian bread, cut diagonally about 1/2 inch thick
6 ounces soft goat cheese, at room temperature

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 °F. Warm 2 Tbsp. oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté shallot until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; sauté 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and increase heat to high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and most of liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in parsley and lemon juice. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired.
Brush bread on both sides with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil; place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake until golden and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes, turning once. Spread goat cheese on bread slices and top each with a heaping tablespoonful of mushroom mixture. Serve.
