  • Guacamole – Creamy, rich, and full of healthy fats.

How to Assemble

  1. Roast the Mushroom – Clean and remove the stem from a large portabella mushroom. Brush it with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast at 400°F for about 15 minutes.

  2. Sauté the Spinach – While the mushroom is roasting, sauté a handful of fresh spinach in a little butter or avocado oil until wilted.

  3. Cook the Sausage – Prepare your sausage patty, cooking it until browned and fully cooked.

  4. Assemble & Serve – Layer the roasted mushroom with the sautéed spinach, top with the sausage patty, and finish with a generous dollop of guacamole.

Pro Tips

💡 Want to add more protein? Add a fried or poached egg on top!
💡 Make it dairy-free by using ghee or coconut oil for sautéing instead of butter.
💡 Meal prep friendly – Cook the sausage and mushrooms ahead of time for quick assembly in the morning.

No matter how you slice it (see what I did there?), if you love mushrooms, you’re going to love this meal. It’s filling, full of flavor, and a perfect way to start your day feeling great.
