Even if you aren't vegan, this easy liquid-smoke technique for making vegan "bacon" will trick any bacon lover. Simply marinate trumpet mushrooms in a seasoned liquid smoke mixture, then bake in the oven until roasted to a crisp. Serve immediately on a BLT-style sandwich or make ahead and store as a topper for salads, soups, and baked potatoes.

Steps:
- Use a mandolin to cut the mushroom stems lengthwise into ¼-inch thick planks.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, vegetable oil, liquid aminos, brown sugar, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar.
- Gently toss the mushrooms in the marinade until evenly coated. Transfer to the refrigerator and marinate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
- Arrange the marinated mushrooms in a single layer on the wire rack.
- Bake for 90-120 minutes, until the mushrooms have dehydrated and are slightly crisp on the edges, but still flexible. They will harden slightly as they cool.
- Serve the mushroom bacon as desired, such as on a "BLT" sandwich, in tofu scramble or breakfast burrito, as a salad topper or soup garnish, or as a topping for baked vegan mac and cheese.
- Enjoy!
