This time around, I tried the Crispy Meatless cutlets. Taking them out of the box, they had an unnerving orangey colour that was kind of strange. Looking at the instructions, pan frying was the safest bet because the oven instructions were very vague but I still decided to bake them up. I put them in at 375F for 20 minutes flipping halfway and when they finished, they didn't look much different than when they came out of the box. I was kind of expecting some brown but they stayed pretty much the same.
They were addictively crispy which is one of my favourite things about anything that's breaded. They had a really great crunch and wonderfully airy texture on the inside. Much like the last product from them that I reviewed, they were lacking a lot of flavour. After a pinch of salt and some sauce on the side for dipping, they were just fine. Overall, they are a good value because you get 4 cutlets per box. They're easy to make despite the lackluster instructions, they're crispy and airy on the inside, and make a great main paired with a salad and side. I must admit, the nacho cheese orangey hue was a bit off putting and they didn't really taste like chicken but ultimately, they were good. Worth the money and good to have on hand in a pinch! I suggest picking up a box and trying them for yourselves! HAPPY VEG
Eating the burgers, there were a few things I noticed. They were wonderfully crispy on the outside despite not getting super brown in the frying pan. I like a crispy outside so that was a treat. Flavour wise, I found that they didn't hold up against the toppings I had chosen so I had to rip a piece of the burger off separately to try. It actually had a great flavour and as I mentioned, a great crisp. I could taste the freshness of the ingredients which was great!
Would I call this the best veggie burger I've ever tried? No, probably not. I would however say that they were tasty, crispy, and full of fresh, wholesome ingredients and that says a lot. I am looking forward to trying some of the other products in their line like their broccoli casserole veggie bites, their root veggie burger, and a few of their salad dressings. Overall, I suggest giving their products a try. You can rest assured that whatever you try comes from a fresh, wholesome beginning. HILARY'S - www.hilaryseatwell.com/ HAPPY VEG |
