So i haven't tried any meatless chicken patties or strips yet but would really like to since it seems all i eat is vegan burgers for my protein. So does anyone have any suggestions of any brands that they tried and actually enjoyed???
I've had the Boca chikn' patties before and they taste just like the real thing! Granted, none of the chikn' pattie varities out there are as healthy as the veggie burgers (higher fat; breading) but they sure can cure a craving. ^^
I like the Gardenburger brand called Chik'n Grill. It tastes better than the real thing! And it is healthy, I think 100 calories and 2.5 grams of fat, 13 grams of protein. Vegan too!
i like boca's vegan spicy chick'n patty. i cut it up and put it in a pita with some lettuce and mustard.
i don't know if you are veggie or full on vegan. If you are vegan, avoid the morningstar farms chik'n . . . alot of it that I've seen is not vegan friendly. Luckily most of the Boca stuff is, though, and the chick'n nuggets are awesome.

Love their spicy chickn patty.
morningstar chick'n strips are fanastic, i make fake chicken casear salads all the time! Quorn naked patties are very realistic too
I agree...My favorite's are the Morningstar Farms Meal Starters Chick'n Strips!
Thank you everyone for the replys! I really appreciate it! I found a the spicy chikn patty by boca and it was amazing!! Thanks again!
Huh, I actually hated Morningstar's Meal Starters... I literally gagged when I tried to eat it :/
I eat a lot of Quorn (trying to cut down and switch more to tofu etc than relying so much on meat substitutes) and it's really the best 'chicken' I've found. The chik'n cutlets are only 80 calories and they're super easy to stick in anywhere. They also have chik'n tenders which are just like, bits of chik'n, really, and those are something like 90 calories per cup-- great to throw into pasta sauces, stir fry, etc.
I love Quorn and Boca Meatless Burgers (Roasted Onion flavor)
i love the boca chickn (not the spicy one, but i don't like spicy anything) the best! but i don't like their veggie burgers... i also really like the morning start chickn (the patties, tenders, nuggets, and strips)... i dont' like quorn much at all... too rubbery for me :/
I love the Morningstar Farms parmesan ranch chickn patties. The regular ones are good too.
My favorites are any of the morningstar farms chikn substitutes( especially the buffalo wings and parmesan ranch chick patties), boca spicy chikn patties and riblets. The riblets are fabulous and taste best when microwaved which is great if you are busy. All of the soy crumbles are great to add into recipes too.
I would avoid the St. Ivves brand. To me it tastes really really bad.
Everything depends on what you like though. Just buy a few boxes of whatever you see and try them out.
Quorn ftw!
You should try Worthington/ Loma Linda brand of vegetarian "meat". My faves are Big Franks (meatless hotdogs) and the "fried chik'n" But just about anything from them is pretty good.
Just watch your sodium intake, just because its vegetarian/vegan doesn't mean its totally healthy. I don't know about other brands but these tend to pack a lot of sodium...
thanks for all the tips guys i appreciate it!:)

yup i like the morningstar ones, but i actually like the boca better (with veggie burgers though i'm the opposite).... the chikn strips don't come anywheres close to tasting "real" but they're good just to have in a meal where i want that flavor/texture...
Is anyone else completely addicted to meatless buffalo wings?? I love those things! (OK and I'm addicted to Quorn meatless meatballs too...) Oh gosh, now I'm hungry.
chick'n by quorn are DEVINE! they are soy-free, 'cause they are actually made from protein!
