This vegan Egg and Bacon bowl is made up of crispy, smoked, sweet and salty maple bacon and a big fried, runny-in-the-middle egg, all on top of a mound of roasted tomatoes, grilled mushrooms, creamy potato salad and a cheesy pumpkin yolk dressing.
No longer are those days where a vegan must miss their hearty cooked breakfast, those runny eggs, crispy bacon, baked beans, hash browns, mushrooms, tomatoes – drool. We can still continue with the eating of delicious food, just without the harming animals bit, which makes it all the more satisfying.
This Bowl is made up of two other recipes of mine plus a bit extra:
