Impossible Burger or Beyond Burger?
Try out the Impossible Burger and Beyond Burger brand alternatives if you're looking for ways to turn these hamburger meat casseroles vegetarian or vegan, without giving up their meaty flavors.
Both brands are similar. Beyond Burger comprises pea protein, coconut and canola oils, and spices. Impossible Burger is made up of soy protein, coconut and sunflower oils, and seasonings. The color and texture of the Impossible Burger are remarkable, and it does taste like meat. It also has fewer calories and fat than Beyond Burger. Beyond Burger, on the other hand, has fewer carbs and is free of soy and GMOs. Which is better comes down to personal preference. Both may trick any lover of hamburger meat, particularly when used as a substitute in casserole recipes.
