The Vegan Bacon & 3-Cheese Frittata of Your Dreams
As any good vegan/vegetarian knows, giving up bacon is one of the hardest things about going meat-free forever.
Lucky for you (and us!), GirlieGirl Army brings us a Vegan Bacon & 3-Cheese Frittata that’s sure to taste even better than the real thing (better because this is good for you!).
This delicious dish is originally from Dan and Annie Shannon of The Betty Crocker Project (see more below) and was a big hit with the GirlieGirl Army crew (they’ve dubbed it a “brunch regular”).
Be sure to serve with a fresh crusty bread (or toast) and lots of vegan Bloody Marys!
Bon Appetit!
INGREDIENTS:
1 Package Tofu (just get the regular Tofu – don’t go Silken)
1 Tablespoon Soy Coffee Creamer
2 Tablespoons Nutritional Yeast Flakes
1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder
1/4 Teaspoon Miso Paste
1/4 Teaspoon Cumin
1/4 Teaspoon Turmeric
1/2 Teaspoon Braggs (If you like Black Salt for “egg” recipes – you can substitute the Braggs for 1/4 Teaspoon of Black Salt if that’s your bag)
1/4 Teaspoon Paprika
Pinch of Lemon Pepper
Dash of Liquid Smoke
3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil for cooking
5 Pieces of Vegan LightLife Smart Bacon or Smoked Tempeh
1/2 Green Bell Pepper (diced)

Recipe by Meet The Shannons. We’ve been kvelling over Dan and Annie Shannon’s cooking skills for quite a while. They launched the Betty Crocker Project on their site, and made it their goal to veganize the entire Betty Crocker cookbook. And if that alone doesn’t make you realize how genius they are, make this recipe to become lifelong fans.

Post a Commenthmm, this looks interesting. Not something I would normally eat, but I would be willing to give something like this a try.
love this!
Frittatas are a great way to make an awesome omelet if you happen to suck at making omelets. And they look so much fancier! People think you’ve made all this effort when really all you’ve done is just scramble everything together and pour into a skillet. It’s our secret!
wow
Never had something like this, but willing to give it a try!
looks yummy!!
I don’t like frittatas, I prefer quiche.
This sounds yummy!!
I’m not vegan, but I’ll eat vegan.
