Vegan Breakfast Bagel Sandwich

When asked what I miss the most about life before being a vegan, there is not a whole lot I can think of. I don’t miss meat, I never think about eggs, but then I think back to breakfast sandwiches. The breakfast bagel sandwich was a big thing for me. When I really think about it, I miss a good egg and cheese breakfast bagel sandwich! So here goes nothing.

I have seen a lot of baconing of things recently, and I am not innocent of this, but I had considered putting a form of bacon and a potato on this sandwich, only to realize, I could combine the 2 ideas and make it super easy! This sandwich contains something I am calling potato “bacon”. It was sliced really thin with a mandolin(don’t cut your finger) then tossed in liquid smoke, maple syrup, and braggs, then sprinkled with paprika and baked to a crisp.

The “omelette” situation is a very simple blend of tofu and chickpea flour. Then cooked really quickly in a pan. I topped mine with vegan cheese, and melted that onto the omelette. Everything is placed on a toasted bagel, maybe with ketchup? Don’t mind if I do.

Ingredients

• Potato "Bacon"
• 1 Large Russet potato, sliced very thin
• 2 Tbsp. Soy sauce or Bragg's amino acids
• 2 Tbsp. Maple syrup
• 1 Tbsp. Liquid smoke
• 1 tsp. Paprika
• Vegan Omelette
• 1 C. Firm tofu, about 1/2 a block, crumbled
• 3/4 C. Almond or soy milk
• 1/4 C. Nutritional yeast
• 1/4 C. Garbanzo bean flour(chickpea flour)
• 1 Tbsp. Arrowroot powder
• 1 tsp. Turmeric
• 1 tsp. Garlic powder
• 1 tsp. Onion powder
• 1 tsp. Salt
• 1/2 tsp. Mustard, dry
• Dash of Black pepper
• 1 tsp. Olive oil, for cooking
• For the Sandwich
• 2 Bagels, whatever kind you want
• 1/3 C. Vegan cheese

Instructions

1. Make the Potato "Bacon"
2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
3. Make sure your potatoes are sliced super thin, so they will get crispy. Place slices in a bowl, then pour the maple syrup, soy sauce and liquid smoke on top. Toss to coat and let sit for a few minutes until the oven is ready.
4. Place the potato slices on a sheet pan sprayed with non stick spray, and sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 450 for 15-20 minutes until crisp and brown. I recommend flipping them half way through so both sides get crisp.
