PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BACON – VEGAN BACON

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BACON – VEGAN BACON

Honestly, this is an easy recipe, it doesn’t require any special culinary skills. I promise. As you can see, it makes a fantastic BLT, and you could also dice the mushrooms and put them in a salad, or put the slices on the side of a tofu scrambler. Anything that bacon can be added to, you can add these mushrooms to. How about putting the strips on a grilled veggie burger for a “bacon” burger?

Smoky, savory, Portobello bacon. Makes a great BLT.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

1. In a bowl that is large enough to marinate the mushroom slices combine the liquid smoke, maple syrup, salt, and pepper.
2. Cut the mushroom into thin strips, no more than a 1/4 of an inch thick, and marinate both sides in the liquid mixture. At least 15 minutes per side.
3. Heat the oil in a medium skillet and cook the mushrooms for 3 minutes, flip and cook for 3 more minutes. They should be browned and the edges should look crispy.
4. Notes
5. For a Bacon Lettuce and Tomato sandwich toast two pieces of whole grain bread. Add lettuce, sliced tomato, the mushroom bacon, and salt and pepper if desired. You can also spread some vegan mayo on the toast for added flavor.
