Sauteed mushrooms with blue cheese sandwich is an unconventional and sophisticated take on the classic grilled cheese sandwich. It is a great lunch recipe that can be whipped up in under 15 minutes and satisfies your hunger pangs without craving for something unhealthy. The mushrooms are sauted perfectly to offer a chewy, meaty texture and combined with the tangy flavor of blue cheese to give a contrast zinginess to your palate. The sandwich can be served with a bowl of soup or fresh salad, or simply savored solo for its rustic aroma and flavorful taste.

Instructions

1.	Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add oil or butter to it.
2.	Add the oyster mushrooms to the pan, along with lemon juice and chilli flakes.
3.	Saute until the mushrooms are tender and have browned evenly, which should take about 8-10 minutes.
4.	Add dill and blue cheese and saute for another 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
5.	Take the bread slice and toast it lightly. Spread any additional condiments or toppings you like.
6.	Top the bread slice with the sauted mixture and garnish with herbs.
7.	Cut in half and serve the sandwich hot.
