Easy, Award- Winning Fake Bacon Recipes.. Hard to Believe It's This Simple!

Creating the closest thing to bacon without using any animal- derived ingredients might seem like an impossible goal, so why even bother to go after it, you might ask? Because I learned that it’s soo much easier than you think! Lately, I’ve noticed that we are being deluged with TV images of bacon- wrapped burgers, tacos, pizzas and every fast food you can think of. Let’s face it–that smokey, salty taste can add lots of flavor to many recipes and, of course, many people take pleasure in just feasting on strips of it.

As a person who does not eat meat, it’s always a challenge to create a new food that can evoke the same taste, flavor and texture of its inspiration. What a bonus that I have found a solution that is not only better for you and me, but better for animals and the planet we all share.

As I journey along this vegan road, my experience has often been that it’s the flavorings and spices that meat- eaters put into and onto many meat, chicken, fish and shellfish recipes that gives it that distinct flavor. This idea was sort of an epiphany for me when I first stopped eating meat. It has really affected how I think about food now and how I cook what I cook. So why should bacon be any different?

So what makes bacon bacon? Greasy. Salty. Smoky.

Crunchy. OK, we can do that! But I know we can do even better than that with these veggie ingredients!
