Thread: LC-Friendly Veggie Options

Hi Peanut! I really like some the Boca products, especially the "sausage patties" for breakfast. They are found in the frozen food section of the grocery store here in the US, and also have about 1 carb each. (I don't have a package here right now, so I don't know if it's a sugar carb.) Even though I'm not a vegetarian, I enjoy them as a lower fat meat substitute.

As a vegetarian, you'll have to make a few concessions in LCing, as you already know, in order to get enough protein. I would say that as long as you are accounting for the carbs in the Yves products (yes, I've seen them here ), are losing well, and feeling good, you are doing ok!

I have eaten the yves turkey slices before without problems. The carb amounts in the slices are small and I think as long as they are small I wouldn't worry about it too much.

The ones that are a good substitute is quorn (which is also a non soy protein sources btw). They make 'chicken' cutlets and a roast which can be sliced thinly and is great with cheese or cream cheese spread on.

I also enjoy the morningstar products, and like the taste more than the boca ones personally. I don't think that they have any sugar in them.
