Directions
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until hot.
Add onions, stirring occasionally, and cook until onions are soft, about 3 minutes.
Add mushrooms, and cook until part of the water evaporates, about 5 minutes.
Stir in spinach, and cook until leaves are wilted or if using frozen spinach, cook until most water has evaporated, about 3 minutes.
Sprinkle cheese over, and stir until melted and combined.
Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
While vegetables are cooking, in two separate small bowls, add one egg, 1 teaspoon chia seeds, 1 teaspoon hemp seeds, ½ teaspoon dried parsley, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder.
Whisk until well mixed. Season each bowl with a bit salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Transfer mushroom-spinach mixture into a small bowl.
Cover with plastic wrap or a small dish to keep warm.
Wipe pan dry with clean paper towel.
To cook the first egg, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil into now-clean pan over medium heat until hot.
Set an egg ring in middle, pour egg mixture into ring, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until egg sets.
Turn egg over and keep cooking the other side for another 1 minute or so.
Transfer cooked egg onto plate, repeat until second egg is cooked.
To assemble sandwich:
Place equal amount of mushroom-spinach mixture on each toast.
Place one egg over each mixture.
Serve with salsa.
