Crunchy Vegan Bacon Recipe: This Easy Shitake Mushroom Bacon Recipe Is Legit Vegan Vegetables Snacks

This vegan "bacon" recipe made out of shiitake mushrooms is addictive – and I'm not vegan. It's best hot, and I highly recommend you just devour it straight from the baking pan. No regrets. No remorse. No guilt. At room temperature, sprinkle it on a salad, baked potato, macaroni and cheese (try Mississippi Vegan's macaroni and cheese recipe), vegetables or just eat it as a quick snack.
