Spray a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Sauté mushrooms for 4 minutes or until soft. Reduce heat to medium, add pepper and onion. Sauté for 4 minutes or until onion is translucent. Spread 2 tbsp (30 mL) salsa on each muffin half. Top with equal amount of mushroom mixture and one poached egg.
