Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 lb fresh spinach (washed and dried )
1/4 red onion, very thinly sliced (white
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
3 slices whole grain bread , any nutty , grainy bread is good
4 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
3 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp grainy mustard
1 lb mushroom, sliced
sea salt
pepper
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (optional)
1 tbsp white wine vinegar (optional)
1 tbsp olive oil (optional)

Directions:

Shred the spinach by hand into a large bowl. Add the sliced onion and red pepper to the spinach.
Toast the bread and then cut it into crouton style cubes. Alternatively, you could cut into cubes first and toast it in the oven so they get toasty all over. Do whichever time permits. Add to the spinach.
Warm the oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add in the garlic and let it cook for a few minutes, being careful not to burn. Stir in the lemon juice, the oregano, basil and mustard, and finally the mushrooms. Let the mushrooms cook for about 5-7 minutes and adjust the seasoning, adding in freshly ground pepper and a little sea salt. It should taste like hot salad dressing at this point. If you prefer it tangier, add more lemon juice or a little wine vinegar.
You should have enough dressing in the pan to fully coat the spinach now, but you can add another tbsp or so of olive oil if you feel like it's not enough. Just make sure it's nice and hot.
Toss the hot dressing over the spinach. Toss well so that the spinach wilts. Toss in the parmesan cheese if desired. Serve warm & enjoy!
