How to Prepare Portobello ‘Bacon’ Sandwich [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To Make the Bacon:

  1. Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add all ingredients to pan and cook for 5-8 or so minutes, stirring and turning as needed until "bacon" begins to caramelize. Remove from pan and set aside. You will want the mushrooms to still maintain some plumpness/moisture.

To Make the Avocado Spread:

  1. In a small bowl mash avocado, stir in cumin, salt, and orange juice until nice and creamy in texture.

To Assemble:

  1. Spread avocado spread on one side of each piece of bread. On one slice of bread, top avocado with greens, top the other slice with diced olives. Layer smoky Portobello bacon on top of the olives, then layer the red and yellow peppers on top of the smoky bacon. Place the slice of bread with the greens, facing down on top of the bacon, completing the sandwich.
