Ingredients

• 2 large King oyster mushrooms
• 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Vegan mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Whole grain mustard
• 2 Vegan sandwich rolls
• 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium Tomato

Directions

Step 1

Clean the king oyster mushrooms and slice them lengthwise into thick pieces that resemble shrimp in shape.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the sliced mushrooms with Old Bay seasoning, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the mushrooms are marinating, prepare the sauce by combining the vegan mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl. Mix until smooth and set aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated mushrooms to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and have a texture similar to cooked shrimp.

Step 5

Slice the tomato into thick slices.

Step 6

Toast the vegan sandwich rolls lightly if desired.

Step 7

Assemble the sandwiches by spreading the mayonnaise-mustard sauce on the bottom half of each roll. Layer the lettuce leaves on top of the sauce, followed by the cooked mushrooms and tomato slices.

Step 8

Top the sandwich with the remaining half of the roll and serve immediately.
