Plant-Based Bacon

Plant-Based Bacon

EverydayCooked

Plant-based bacon is a meat-free alternative typically made from soy protein, wheat gluten, or mushrooms designed to mimic the smoky, savory flavor of traditional bacon. This vegetarian protein source generally contains less fat and zero cholesterol compared to conventional bacon, while still providing a crispy texture when cooked. The product is often enhanced with natural smoke flavoring and plant-based ingredients to replicate the characteristic bacon taste profile, making it suitable for sandwiches, salads, and breakfast dishes.
