bacon , vegan


I used some with a toasted vegan gf waffle and vegan egg. Waffle recipe found here: https://nannykimsrecipes.blogspot.com/2023/07/waffles-dairy-free-oil-free.html

 This is really good; best yet.  You can do it one of two ways.  One way uses the rice paper with just the seasonings and a second way you add some marinated tofu in between the rice paper.  The second way is what is in my photos. 


For a great vegan egg recipe go here: https://nannykimsrecipes.blogspot.com/2024/01/mung-bean-egg.html


Ingredients:

1/4 cup tamari (for GF---you can use soy sauce but not all are gf)

1/4 cup water

1 teaspoon liquid smoke

1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast

Optional if using 3.5 oz of firm tofu (I used extra firm--this is about 1/4 of a 15 ounce block),drained, pressed and crumbled

a sprinkling of black pepper 

optional: 1 & 1/2 teaspoon mushroom seasoning

3 large sheets of rice paper or 6 small sheets or whatever

Parchment paper or oil to grease your pans

2 cookie sheets


Directions: Preheat oven 400 F

Combine tamari, water, liquid smoke, smoked paprika, garlic powder, nutritional yeast, black pepper, mushroom seasoning in a bowl and mix well.

If using tofu place 2 tablespoons of this liquid in a small bowl and place the crumbled tofu in it mixing it.

Line cookie sheets with parchment paper

Take the rice paper and cut in 1 & 1/2 strips. Dip strips in the large bowl and place on cookie sheet. You don't soak them--you just dip them. Then top immediately with another strip you have dipped in the marinade if not using tofu. 

 If using the Tofu you first place a dipped piece of rice paper on the pan, top with a bit of tofu, and then top this with another dipped piece of rice paper.  Note: the pieces of rice paper with stick to each other as they bake.

So with either recipe with or without tofu you end up with 2 rice paper strips on top of each other--the ones with tofu will have tofu in between teh 2.

Place in oven and cook 7 minutes watching the last few minutes to make sure they don't burn.
