The packaging for this is decidedly industrial, but there are many pleasant aspects to these #frozen #crabcakes 😋 The flavour is very crabby iykwim, and I'm known to still crave good #seafood so that went down a treat 🙂 As usual I tried to follow the instructions for baking in the oven before dismissing that as too healthy and concluding that I need to deep-fry 😂 As you can see, if you bake they don't look anything like what they ought to, even if the outermost layer does crisp up a tiny little bit. It'll be the frying pan next time 😉

Does have a seafood taste to it. Omni products are amazing!
I appreciate the amount of cakes per package. The cakes make for a protein rich meal. #veganprotein
The first course of my meal for Wednesday (all the way back in #veganisnotscary Week 4) was stuffed mushrooms, a family favorite. Sadly, my great-aunt’s recipe calls for crab and three different types of dairy; I wanted to replicate the familiar flavor without the senseless cruelty. Enter: OmniFoods plant-based #crablesscakes! I was floored; I honestly could not believe how tasty these were! When prepared as directed (I don’t have an air fryer, but I tested pan-frying and toaster over, both excellent,) they develop a nice #crispy crust outside while remaining incredibly tender and flaky at the core. They have a mild marine flavor with hints of various spices, most notably pepper. I believe they do indeed taste like crab, but better. #fakemeat Nutrition-wise, they’re not half bad, either: they offer a commendable amount of #protein and, surprisingly, iron. Because they were so ridiculously delicious (and only $1.99 per bag at Grocery Outlet,) I ended up going back and buying every bag I could get my hands on! I did find it a bit odd how large the packaging was, considering that it was non-resealable and only housed 5 medium-sized medallions. It would be nice if they could reduce the bag size or increase the number of pieces per unit. Otherwise, I have nothing but praise for these mouthwatering and phenomenal cakes that #leavethefishinthesea (and the crustaceans, as well!) #veganseafood
Did not make in a dish or use any seasoning, made these while camping and they were so yummy!! The texture and flavor is perfect. My boyfriend keeps asking for more! So much can be done with this.
