Which Quorn products are available?

We've just had mint & rosemary 'lamb' grills which were very nice, although in texture more like steamed chicken. I gather there are 'diced chicken' pieces which we could use in curries and stirfries. We're moving more and more towards vegetarian options. Can anyone give a run-down/recommendation on which other Quorn products are available which we could try? I did try the Quorn website but couldn't get it to load.

    They do two types of Quorn sausages, Quorn mince and Quorn burgers.

    Sometimes Iceland do a BOGOF.

    I like the quorn chicken style burgers....and though not quorn the linda macartney "country style" pies

    Think Tesco do a range of own brand quorn stuff these days

    the Quorn Deli Roast chicken slices are good as well

  • Though not quorn, we like the RealEat mince (frozen) or the VegiDeli mince (refrigerated). RealEat mince is available at Tesco, VegiDeli mince at Holland & Barrett. Both very versatile and can be used in lasagne, tacos, moussaka, chilli etc. I would think the Quorn mince would be just as versatile.

    Also really like the VegiDeli sausages (lincolnshire or marjoram & sage)... also at H&B. And for sandwiches, the VegiDeli sage & onion or "beef" slices, which are available at Morrisons for the bargain price of 89p or 99p per packet (enough for three sandwiches). DH and I had the Quorn "chicken" roast once at someone's house (we rarely buy Quorn ourselves as none of it is vegan), and thought it was really nice.

    :)
    I want to move to theory. Everything works in theory.
  • I quite like the Quorn lemon and black pepper fillets - they kind of resemble chicken fillets covered in breadcrumbs

    The Quorn pieces I tend to use in place of chicken in dishes that have quite a lot of flavour to them - so things like curries or spicy mexican dishes. I also use the Quorn mince in bolognaise and lasagne etc...
  • If you enjoy a roast dinner, try the quorn roast. (Sells for around £2.99) Cooks from frozen in around 45 minutes.
    I have one vegetarian in the family, but all my kids love this, and I cook it quite regularly and serve it with all the usual roast dinner trimmings. Any left over can be used cold sliced on sandwiches with salad or whatever.
  • The 'chicken' (breadcrumbed) burgers are really good, we also cut them into strips and have them in a wrap, KFC style.

    'Chicken' nuggets/dippers are yum too (though a bit pricey IMO)

    The pieces are great in curry, sweet n sour, mexican fajitas etc.

    The mince is probably the most non-veggie-friendly, i've fed it to my carnivore brother in spag bol and he inhaled it ;) Use in lasagne, spag bol, chilli, shepherds pie etc.

    The sausages are okay, i think they're a bit bland though boyfriend loves them, i prefer the Cauldron brand. (cauldron also do gorge nut burgets, really really yum)

    I buy lots of Quorn products, especially the diced chicken flavour ones, or the mince for my bolognese sauces.

    They do some good sausages too but I prefer to get the Cauldron tofu ones.

    We like the Quorn pies for Sunday dinner, which I buy at Tesco.
    I am now vegetarian but previously ate meat pies and find the Quorn pies very authentic.

    I love the garlic mushroom topped grills, but only buy them when they are on BOGOF or half price in Tescos

    Hubs and I are both veggie and have been for years.
    Here's what we've had regularly over the past few years.

    - quorn roast - and we have this for xmas dinner
    - quorn pieces - use in curries, caseroles, stews etc
    - quorn mince - use in spag bol, chill etc though I find it expensive and prefer dried soya mince
    - quorn southern fried burgers - yummy with mayo in baps or with chips and beans
    - quorn deli chicken slices for sandiwches
    - quorn fillets - cook from frozen in microwave in a covered dish in about 3 minutes, lovely with gravy and mash etc or with tomatoey sauce over with noodles
    - quorn swedish style meatballs - lovely with tomatoey sauce with spaghetti or noodles - hubs thinks its too realistically meaty
    - quorn lemon and pepper fillets someone else mentioned, yummy
    - fillets in povencal sauce, very tasty thought the plain fillets with some ragu are as nice and much cheaper
    - quorn and mushroom pies are GORGEOUS

    Thats all I can think of for now! Looks like we are keeping them in business lol
