Vegan German Schnitzel with Mushroom sauce

This mushroom sauce is a classic in my kitchen. I make it with whatever mushrooms I have on hand. For this version, I used a mix of portobello and button mushrooms. It pairs perfectly with a schnitzel made from TVP (textured vegetable protein).

Inspired by a vegan restaurant in Lisbon, this toast is an easy starter, snack, or appetizer. The bread is toasted, spread with cashew cream, and topped with sun-dried tomatoes, capers, and rosemary oil. I loved it, but found the balance a bit off, so I created my own version.
