Kary Osmond: Vegan BLTs are so good, you won’t eat just one
Growing up, we had a holiday morning tradition: We ate bacon sandwiches on soft, squishy white bread while sipping orange juice and opening presents under the tree.
Although my eating habits have changed since then, and we’re entering a new year, I didn’t want this tradition to end with holidays of years past. So, I’ve made plant-based bacon sandwiches to enjoy anytime. They’re just as good — or even better! The veggie bacon gives the sandwich that smoky flavor. Top that with maple-mustard caramelized onions, tomato and peppery arugula lettuce, and I bet you can’t eat just one!
