Tofurky and Field Roast are big names in meat alternatives, both offering a variety of flavors of vegan sausages. I have always been a fan of Tofurky’s Italian sausages, but on a recent trip to the Follow Your Heart market, I wondered if that was only because Tofurky was available at most grocery stores. I decided to test the theory and pick up a package of Field Roast Italian Sausages.
One weekend morning, I cooked up a bowl of both, along with some red bell pepper.
All of the Field Roast Italian Sausages were individually wrapped and I could immediately see why. They were pretty delicate and came apart a bit as you can see in the photo above.
Here’s a photo of the sausages cooked and looking quite tasty. My opinion was that the Field Roast sausages were heartier and more meaty and would probably be great crumbled up and used in a dish. I still favor the Tofurky sausages, though. They were easier to keep together when cooking and had more of an Italian flavoring. Don’t go by my opinion, though… give them a try because everyone’s tastes are different.

LOVE the apple sage field roast. I use it in my vegan mac and cheese or chili!
Oh, I should try that one!
I’ve been meaning to try the Field Roast sausage for a long time but the packaging always scared me away. I kind of figured it was the fall apart type. How salty was it? I find Tofurkey a little too salty sometimes.
I don’t remember it being too salty, so it couldn’t have been too bad.
