Field Roast Smoked Apple & Sage Plant Based Sausage Review
Recently while visiting family in upstate NY, my brother and I stopped at Walmart to pick up a few grocery items. While perusing the isles, we came upon this Field Roast plant-based product. Anxious to give it a try, I purchased it and took it home. A few days later, we are preparing to celebrate my brother’s birthday. I’m struggling to try to figure out what to make for his birthday dinner. He’s not vegan or vegetarian, however is always willing to try different food items. His wife, my sister-in-law, eats mostly plant-based foods so the idea is not new to him. After much deliberation, I decided to make vegan sausage, peppers, and onions. The only thing I added to the Field Roast sausage dish was onion powder, and a little salt and pepper. I used frozen multi-colored peppers and fresh sweet onions. I cut the sausages in 1/2 pieces, and lightly sautéed them in a small amount of vegetable oil. I then diced the onion and sautéed in a small amount of vegetable oil as well. Once cooked, I combined the two. The product has a lot of flavor so it doesn’t really need much added. I also made the meat version because I wasn’t sure if he would eat the plant-based version. Our 86 year old mother joined in, she loves and mostly eats plant-based foods.
Upon presenting both versions, everyone loved the plant-based version the best! I was thrilled! Once I returned home, I needed to restock my own pantry. We have so many options in South Florida and that particular day I decided to shop at my local Publix. I was so happy to find this product in the plant-based refrigerated section of the store. I thought I’d try making the same dish but without the peppers (I forgot to buy them). It turned out delicious and my husband really liked it! So that’s definitely a do-over! The company states right on the label “may be previously frozen, okay to refreeze”. I love that, if you can’t use it all right now, no problem, just refreeze it for future use!

Sausages!
I wanted sausages. I tried these vegan sausages from trader Joe’s. I was expecting a product that was not very tasty. Boy, was I surprised. It was delicious. They were very nice. I had them with peppers, and onions, fried potatoes on the side. Really tasty and good. I would buy it again.

Great! Though wish it has some fiber...
Wow, these look and sound GREAT. Nice to see a vegan protein replacement that is low in fat! Just wish it had some fiber. If 5+ grams of fiber, it would be perfect!
