Plant-Based Un-Big Mac

Since I’ve been eating primarily plant-based, I still have that craving for a Big Mac.

Don’t judge me. They made me feel so good when eating them, but that could have been because of all the sugar and unsaturated fat.

Jay Patel from Plant-Based & Vegan (Easy Recipes) came to the rescue and shared this awesome plant-based, vegan-friendly version of this classic. Enjoy this Plant-Based Un-Big Mac recipe.

I used to love Big Macs until I realized how many calories there were in one sandwich. This is a great plant-based alternative to satiate my Big Mac craving. Thanks, Jay Patel from Plant-Based & Vegan (Easy Recipes)
