Backstory

About 8 years ago, I started a vegan diet. I had been pescatarian for about 10 years before that, so it wasn't a dramatic change. However, there were a few dishes I had not been able to replicate with plant-based alternatives. Egg McMuffins was just one example. I've been on a quest to replicate that sandwich, and now I finally feel like I have. I hope you enjoy it!
