The BLT is a classic sandwich. If you’re a hardcore omnivore, you might be resistant to the idea of veganizing it, but just read on. Made with our new Fake-o-Baco, this vegan BLT sandwich achieves the flavours of its namesake, even without actual bacon.

Fake-o-Baco is a nutrient dense mixture of adzuki beans, buckwheat groats, tomato paste, hickory smoke, maple syrup, tamari, and other seasonings. Best fried up in a pan, your kitchen will be filled with a smell that reminds you of Sunday morning brunch.

Obviously, it’s not the same thing as bacon, but it’s pretty dang delicious. Pair it up with crisp lettuce, ripe tomato, our new vegan chipotle mayo, and a touch of avocado (if you’re feeling extra crazy) and you’ll have yourself a lunch fit for a champion – whether you’re vegan or not.
