My Faves From Popular Plant-Based Lines

GARDEIN

CRISPY CHIK'N SLIDERS

I didn't even have to think about this one when I was selecting my fave product from the Gardein line. Gardein has one of the most expansive plant-based lines with everything from imitation seafood to these delicious mini chik'n sliders. The sliders are literally addictive and I don't believe I've ever eaten less than all 4 of them in one go. They're crispy but retain a good amount of moisture inside and they're honestly delicious. They're definitely in my top 5 favourite vegan frozen goodies.

BOCA

CHIK'N VEGGIE NUGGETS

I'm a sucker for nugs and these are definitely my fave product from the line that I've tried so far. They were undeniably crispy and definitely hit the spot. While they aren't my favourite plant-based nug, they're certainly delish in a pinch!

YVES VEGGIE

VEGGIE GROUND

Yves veggie Ground has been a go-to for me for as long as I can remember. Long before Beyond Meat released their eerily similar to beef ground, Yves was the product you went to for all of your beefless needs. It takes on the flavours of whatever you're cooking really well and provides the necessary texture you're looking for. It's great in dishes like Shepherd's Pie or Chili and also makes a fabulous Bolognese.

LIGHTLIFE

VEGGIE DOGS

Although hot dogs are not on my regular meal rotation, these are the ones I always buy when the craving for dogs strikes. They're eerily similar to meat based dogs in every way. Smell, taste, texture, appearance, etc., they're definitely proof that you can still eat everything you loved before giving up meat. The next time you get that craving for chili dogs, go with the Lightlife brand ;)

BEYOND MEAT

BREAKFAST PATTIES

Let's be honest here folks, the entire Beyond Meat line is pretty fabulous. There hasn't been a product that they've released that I haven't absolutely loved, including the breakfast patties. The breakfast patties have changed the breakfast game. They're so flavourful & juicy, and there's some serious magic that happens while they sizzle in a hot skillet. Honestly, they're delish on their own as an accompaniment to other brekkie items or slapped between a bagel for some breakfast sandwich actsh. By far, these are my fave thing from beyond Meat to date!

PRES CHOICE

PLANT BASED "MEAT" BROTHS

I couldn't be more obsessed with these broths from President's Choice. Both the Beefless & Chickenless broths have an abundance of flavour and both smell eerily similar to meaty broths. They have really allowed me to cook recipes as close to the original as possible. For example, my "Beef" and Mushroom Stroganoff wouldn't have been the same without the contributions of the PC Bran Beefless broth. They are the perfect addition to soups, stews, chilis, and gravies. I'm telling y'all, these broths are the bees knees!
