From our friends at LiteLife comes their Gimme Lean: Sausage Style. This impressive packaged faux meat is truly loaded with "Style". I like the sausage casing-like wrapper, the density and weight of the unit, and the very fashionable strawberries flanking the sausage patties on the design. This is a faux meat that is ready to go out on the town.
Unfortunately, I don't find this to be the best tasting veggie sausage around. I've had this product in my house numeorus time. I use it mainly for breakfast sausages. It could be that it has other, better, uses than as a breakfast sausage (maybe the strawberries are trying to tell us that this is more of a dessert sausage).
The sausage flavor is too subtle and the main flavors that come through seem to be salt and pepper alone. I prefer other patty style sausage like the ones from Boca or Morning Star. Additionally, with those two brands the patties are made for you. The Gimme Lean is pretty inconvenient and has nether a patty or link version of their product
The first few times I sampled Gimme Lean: Sausage Style, I made the mistake of opening up the whole casing and making patties like one would make hamburgers. Don't bother. If you do like Gimme lean, let me suggest that you take a sharp serated knife and cut into the wrapped sausage hunk and pre-make patties that way. (see image below)
It was much easier and saves you the trouble of dealing with patty formation early in the morning.

I love Gimme Lean sausage. The directions on hte package say to just slice it, they don't suggest making patties so why would you? Its already shaped in the log, just slice and cook. That being said it more versatile than the pre cooked frozen patties because you can break it up and use it in things like tacos.
I like that it has a better texture than the frozen ones I usually eat. The frozen ones don't replicate the "squishy" feeling I recall from eating actual meat. I've adapted sausage recipes using this, as it holds together better. I think the flavor is very similar to what I remember of sausage, but then, I haven't eaten meat for 19 years. If you find their sausage dissapointing, I'm pretty sure their ground beef flavor will be a let down, as well.
Very Nice Blog !
