Preparation

Melt 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the butter; brush over mushroom caps and place in 2 (8-inch/23-cm) square baking dishes; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in 400 °F (200 °C) oven for 15 minutes or until tender. Transfer mushrooms to a plate and reduce oven temperature to 250 °F (120 °C).

Meanwhile, melt 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the butter in large frypan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and oregano. Cook and stir until tender. Add spinach; toss until wilted. Divide spinach mixture between same dishes used to bake mushroom caps. Top with mushrooms, rounded sides down. Fill each cap with 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the Canadian Italian-type cheese blend and place in oven to keep warm.

Beat together eggs and red peppers. Melt remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter in large frypan over medium heat; add egg mixture. Cook and stir until eggs are softly set. Fill mushroom caps with scrambled eggs and sprinkle with remaining Canadian Italian-type cheese blend. Return to oven for a few minutes to melt cheese. Serve with toast points, if desired.
