I have this interest in celebrity recipes that I can't explain. Maybe I just like to picture TV and movie stars with an apron on in their kitchen, making salads and homemade ice cream and basting turkey, happily serving their guests. I did a big post a while back about Frank DeCaro's site, which has a bunch of recipes from various personalities, from Burt Reynolds to Vanna White.
After the jump is a recipe from Golden Girl Bea Arthur. Maybe it's something you'll try this morning.
Bea Arthur's Good Morning Mushroom-Tomato Toast
4 slices bread, toasted
1 Tbsp. margarine
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
¾ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tsp. nutritional yeast (optional)
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Melt the margarine in a small pan over medium heat, add the tomatoes and mushrooms, and sauté over high heat until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the salt and pepper. Put some tomato-mushroom mixture on each piece of toast and, if desired, sprinkle some nutritional yeast on top. Heat in the oven for 2 minutes, and then serve immediately.

Not sure why the oven time is needed, I mean all of the ingredients are already hot. Now if it was to melt cheese on top rather than yeast..........
Now that's an idea!cheese on top!

Vegan types often use nutritional yeast as a substitute for cheese, so that seems a natural change for non-vegans.
