Veggie Bagel Sandwich
If you're someone who wants breakfast to feel indulgent but not take forever, this one’s for you. This savory vegan bagel sandwich layers smoky mushrooms, perfectly seasoned JUST Egg, creamy avocado, and crisp sprouts into a handheld dream you’ll come back to again and again. It’s rich, satisfying, and protein-packed—with a brunch-y vibe that totally works for a Tuesday morning or a slow Sunday.
Let’s talk technique: cooking the mushrooms with a splash of liquid smoke and vegan Worcestershire creates a bold, meaty flavor that balances beautifully with the buttery avocado and the bright crunch from sprouts. Meanwhile, kala namak gives the vegan scramble that classic “eggy” taste—but if you don’t have it, regular salt still works just fine. You can also prep the mushroom mixture ahead of time for even quicker mornings.
Not a fan of sprouts? Swap in spinach or microgreens. Want more heat? Add a smear of chipotle aioli or hot sauce. The build is flexible—but the combination of savory, creamy, and fresh is the magic here.
Simple, quick, and delicious!
