Spinach With Mushrooms and Bread image

This simple vegetarian recipe, from Mark Bittman, is a great light lunch, the result of a trip to a Parisian market in 2008. Pairing bread from an earlier dinner with flavorful chanterelles and spinach, he came up with this quick, flexible meal. It was, as he wrote, "a completely honest and delicious dish that might've been the most creative thing I did all week, had it not been among the most traditional."
