Mushroom Bacon
10m prep 35m cook 45m ready
4 to 6 servings Upon discovering that roasted mushrooms have an unmistakable meatiness, we decided to take it a step further, roasting mushrooms with the spices and seasonings often used on bacon. The result is good for snacking, piling on a vegetarian BLT, or sprinkling on a salad. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.

Spread the shiitakes out on the baking sheets in a single layer. Bake until browned and dry to the touch, 30 to 35 minutes.

Let the mushrooms cool completely.
