How to Prepare Rutabaga Carbonara with Shiitake Mushroom Bacon [Vegan]

Peel and dice the rutabaga into cubes and then roast for around 25-30 minutes at 390°F, until the rutabaga is soft.
Meanwhile fry your shallots and garlic until soft and browning.
Once the rutabaga and shallots are cooked place them both into a blender. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients and blend until smooth.
Thinly slice your mushrooms and place in a tray. Cover with the liquid smoke, tamiri and maple syrup.
Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions.
Place the mushrooms in the oven for 5-10 minutes at 390°F. You want the mushrooms to have started to crisp a little.
Once the pasta is done drain and pour the sauce over it. Add the mushrooms. To serve, add a mix of crushed pecans and nutritional yeast to create a pecan parmesan, and some fresh parsley.
