Many, many years ago when I was in college I used to skip class (shh...don't tell my dad) to go to the pub on campus to "study" and get a veggie burger. It was the first time I had one and I LOVED it. I couldn't get enough of them. I loved the veggies in it, especially the water chestnuts. Fast forward a few years later and I was out of college and still missing my veggie burger lunch dates. So I grabbed a box of the Morningstar Farms Garden Veggie Patties to see if I liked them. Imagine my surprise when they tasted almost identical to the ones I had eaten! I was in love and I couldn't get enough of these. Even today these are in my grocery cart several times a month. I buy more than one box at a time. These are my favorite veggie burgers. They are healthy, have a ton of veggies in them and the water chestnuts are still my favorite part of this burger giving it a little extra crunch. I eat these for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Yes I eat them for breakfast. Burgers aren't just a breakfast food you know. Well that's not true. Burgers are a lunch/dinner food when they are unhealthy. These burgers are great on an English muffin, topped with a reduced fat cheese. It's like eating a sausage mcmuffin w/out the sausage.
Now, with that said, I eat sausage mcmuffins at home all the time too. The Morningstar Farms Veggie Sausage Patties are to die for. They have a little sweetness to them and I love that I can just pop one in the microwave and by the time my English muffin is toasted, my sausage patty is done! A fast, on the go, healthy breakfast!
Have you tried any of their products yet? If not, you are missing out! The Garden Veggie Patties are only 110 calories each and contain only 3.5 g of fat, but 10 grams of protein! If you are wondering what other veggies are in this it includes mushrooms, water chestnuts, onion, carrots, green and red bell peppers, and black olives. I love olives but not usually in burgers. These are not overpowering at all. I hardly know they are in there.
