Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 patties plant-based burger patties
- 8 slices plant-based bacon
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 4 slices dairy-free jack cheese slices
- 4 units burger buns
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by slicing the cremini mushrooms and chopping the onion and garlic cloves finely.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for about 3 minutes until the onions become translucent.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and have released their moisture. Remove the mushroom mixture from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and cook the plant-based bacon slices over medium heat until crispy. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In a separate grill pan or outdoor grill set to medium-high heat, cook the plant-based burger patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are well browned.
Place one slice of dairy-free jack cheese on top of each patty in the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt slightly.
Toast the burger buns on the grill during the last minute of cooking the patties.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked burger patty with melted cheese, two slices of crispy plant-based bacon, a generous scoop of the mushroom mixture, and a thick slice of tomato.
Finish with the top half of the bun and serve immediately.
