VEGGIE McMUFFIN, HAPPINESS IN EVERY BITE
Karine calls this Veggie McMuffin the dirty weekend sandwich – warning: this is NOT one of those super healthy breakfasts… It’s for when you’re having a craving for something junky. She and her partner created this recipe together, so so she can’t take all the credit for it! He is a master at creating veganized versions of junky foods. The recipe has evolved over time and has several variations based on how hungry/junky you’re feeling that day. The sandwich is a take on the McDonald’s Egg McMuffin, only better cause it’s vegan!
