2 big Portobello mushrooms
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
Dried herbs (like oregano)
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vinegar (for poaching eggs)
2 cups of spinach
1 tomato, sliced

1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 teaspoon mustard

Heat oven to 400°F (200°C). After cleaning the gills of the mushrooms, brush them with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and herbs. Bake for about 15 minutes until soft.
Mix all the yogurt sauce ingredients in a bowl.
Cook spinach in a pan for 1 minute until wilted.
To poach eggs: bring water to a light boil, add vinegar. Crack the eggs gently into the poaching water. Cook for 3 minutes, then lift them out with a slotted spoon.
Put mushrooms on plates. Add spinach and tomato. Put an egg on each. Spoon yogurt sauce over. Top with fresh herbs.
That’s it! Enjoy your healthy Portobello Mushroom Eggs Benedict!
