I love almost everything MorningStar and their Veggie Buffalo Wings do not disappoint! The funny thing is, I never ate REAL Buffalo Wings back when I wasn't a vegetarian, but I love these veggie versions of them.
Made of Soy and Wheat Products, these vegetarian wings don't really taste like chicken, but they do taste great! The breading is a little spicy, just the way I like it. The inside is not mushy or anything like that. Instead it's a nice solid texture that makes it feel almost like you were chewing chicken. I'm sure non-vegetarian's wouldn't be fooled, but I still enjoy these even if they don't taste exactly like chicken!
The serving size is 5 wings, but I usually eat about 8, unless I'm having a side dish with it. These are great as a meal alone for me! I like to dip them in ketchup/mustard OR in ranch dressing depending on my mood. However most of the time, I dip them in barbeque sauce just like you would for regular Buffalo Wings. They taste good with any kind of BBQ sauce you would normally use. I've also made them with mashed potatoes and gravy and poured the gravy over them. It was excellent!
5 Wings is 8 grams of fat and 200 calories which isn't bad for a meal. You do get 12 grams of protein out of this so you have to remember that is a huge plus for vegetarians. As a frozen food, there is quite a bit of salt (640 mg) but I counteract this by not adding salt to any of my other foods.
Straight out of the freezer, these take about 2 mins to prepare. It's quick and easy for me to have a filling and healthy meal! What I usually do is make a side dish (potatoes, veggies, etc) for my husband and I to share, then he makes some kind of real meat for him, and I heat a few of these up for me. They are so quick to heat up that I usually wait until everything else is cooked and then just throw these in when we are getting ready to sit down. This is a great option if you have some vegetarians in the family but others want meat.
I always have a pack of MorningStar Veggie Buffalo Wings in my freezer, ready to go along with almost any meal. They are quick, easy, healthy and tasty - what more could you want? Enjoy!!
