  • ½ cup mayonnaise or vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon white miso
  • 4 slices country white or multigrain bread, lightly toasted
  • ½ avocado, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced

    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    • Olive oil
    • Chopped basil, thyme, or other herb of your choice
    Sub-recipe steps
    1. Preheat the oven to 250°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread out on the sheet: 2 pounds tomatoes, cut into ¾-inch-thick slices
    2. Combine: 1 teaspoon sugar; ½ teaspoon salt; ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    3. Sprinkle over the tomatoes. Drizzle with: Olive oil

  • 1
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
    • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
    • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
    • ½ teaspoon salt or smoked salt
    • ½ teaspoon black pepper
    • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
    • 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, thinly sliced
    Sub-recipe steps
    1. In a medium bowl, whisk together: 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 tablespoon maple syrup; 2 teaspoons soy sauce; 2 teaspoons smoked paprika; ½ teaspoon salt or smoked salt; ½ teaspoon black pepper; ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
    2. Toss in the bowl with the seasonings: 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, thinly sliced
    3. Spread the shiitakes out on the baking sheets in a single layer. Bake until browned and dry to the touch, 30 to 35 minutes. Cook time will depend on whether you prefer a chewy texture or a crisp texture. To test for doneness, remove one mushroom piece from the oven and let it cool, then taste it. Let the mushrooms cool completely.
