When you're considering going vegan, you may be hesitant to make the switch because you don't want to give up some of the meaty vegan dishes that you love. However, it is possible incorporate meaty textures and flavors into plants with the right combination of seasonings and cooking techniques. This month I created 3 meaty vegan sandwiches that you'll love to eat again and again: The Mushroom Po'Boy, The Portabella BLT, and the Crispy Cauliflower Sandwich.
Keep reading to watch my recent segment on DC's Good Morning Washington and get the recipe for my delicious vegan BLT. Want the recipes for the Mushroom Po'Boy and the Crispy Cauliflower Sandwich? Comment Below to let me know!
