Late-Night Snack: Vegan Bacon Wrapped 'Pigs' in a Blanket

This story is free to read because readers choose to support LAist. If you find value in independent local reporting, make a donation to power our newsroom today.

With all the talk of illegal bacon dogs and legal veggie dogs on the streets of Los Angeles, why not combine the two (plus some) for a little at-home fun cooking? So here it goes: vegan bacon wrapped "pigs" in a blanket. Whoa.

Three simple ingredients:

  • Pillsbury Crescent Big & Flakey Croissants (yes, they are vegan)
  • Yves Hot Dogs
  • Lightlife Smart Bacon

Take the bacon, twirl it around the dog and place it on a the croissant and roll. Cook the croissants as the package says and when all is said and done, you should have a cripsy bacon wrapped dog within a flakey croissant. Ahh, vegan junkfood.Photo by Snack Behrens/LAist
