Method

Mushroom Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the lion's mane mushroom with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Slice the mushroom into thick steaks.

  2. 2

    Blacken the Mushrooms

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced lion's mane mushrooms. Sprinkle blackening seasoning evenly over the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until a dark crust forms and the mushrooms are tender. Remove from heat.

Ranch Dressing

  1. 3

    Make the Ranch Dressing

    In a bowl, combine vegan mayonnaise, plant-based milk, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the lettuce leaves and set aside. Slice the tomato and onion into thin rounds.

  2. 5

    Cook the Plant-Based Bacon

    In the same skillet used for the mushrooms, cook the plant-based bacon according to package instructions until crispy.

  3. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Lightly toast the Hawaiian buns. Spread a generous amount of ranch dressing on both the top and bottom buns. Layer the lettuce, tomato, onion, blackened lion's mane mushroom, and crispy plant-based bacon. Place the top bun on and press down gently. Cut in half if desired.
