Zapiekanka

A Polish snack built around baguette and mushrooms — on the table in 25 minutes. Each serving lands at 756 calories with 41g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. Naturally vegetarian, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 1 Baguette
• 8 oz Mushrooms
• 1 Onion
• 2 cups Cheese
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1/4 cup Ketchup
• 2 tbsp Chives

Steps

1. Split the baguette lengthwise — the halves should be sturdy enough to hold the topping.
2. Sear the mushrooms and onion in butter until golden and all moisture has cooked away.
3. Pile the mushrooms high on the bread; restraint has no place in a zapiekanka.
4. Blanket with cheese, edge to edge.
5. Bake at 425 degrees 10 minutes until the cheese bubbles and bronzes.
6. Finish with ketchup zigzags and chives; eat over the paper it came on, street-style.
