Smoked Carrot Bacon

If you have ever questioned making bacon any other way except by using pork, think again. If you're watching your cholesterol or just don't eat pork, give this a shot...pretty awesome if you ask me!!

Cuisine: American
Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 4 medium carrots peeled
  • 2 tbsp cold pressed olive oil
  • 1 tbsp tamari or coconut aminos for soy-free I didn't have either so I used soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder
  • 1 tsp liquid smoke optional (but I think this made all the difference)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325.
  • Slice the carrots using a mandolin or vegetable peeler (I used the peeler...it was perfect!)
  • Mix all the remaining ingredients in a small bowl and add the carrots, turning them gently to coat with the sauce.
  • Lay them, not overlapping, on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes until golden.
