In reply to the discussion: How does one turn a house of four omnivores into a vegetarian family? [View all]VanillaRhapsody
(21,115 posts)26. As a "transitioner" I can attest Gardein brand. I have been taste testing them all
and that brand has the most "mouth feel" of meat so far and the near umami. I like Boca next followed by Morningstar Farms. I hear there are some new things coming to this realm soon. I have tried the burgers and the chicken piccata...both very tasty and make a good substitute. I recommend you buy some Fortified Nutritional Yeast...and use that to flavor things. That helps me alot.

For me, it was shifting meal planning from a dominant meat to a grain or legume with some meat.
