Shiitake Mushroom Bacon

I love how meaty shiitake mushrooms taste! They provide the perfect amount of umami to a dish. If you haven't ever given them a try, this is a perfect first recipe . It is simple and can be eaten by itself or with a lot of my other recipes. I especially love this in my Stuffed Breakfast Burrito recipe with Mung Bean Scrambled Eggs. If you are looking for a hearty breakfast and you have a little time to cook, I highly recommend planning to make the burrito.
