Lean Cuisine Breakfast Sandwiches

Reviewed by Mr Breakfast on 7/29/2014

I tried 2 varieties of Lean Cuisine Breakfast Sandwiches from their Morning Collection: Turkey Sausage English Muffin and Veggie Egg White English Muffin. Of the the two, I preferred the Veggie Egg White Sandwich.

The Turkey Sausage English Muffin was fine but tasted like a number of products already on the market. Everything on the sandwich (egg patty, turkey sausage and cheese) is acceptable, but nothing is exceptional.





The Veggie Egg White English Muffin won the battle between these two sandwiches because it offers something different: garden fresh flavor. The egg patty has pieces of spinach and tomato. Those flavors are definitely noticeable, but it’s a hint of basil that really helps this sandwich taste fresh.





Both sandwiches suffer from the English muffin becoming slightly chewy and lifeless after microwaving. The preparation requires wrapping the sandwiches in paper towels, defrosting and then microwaving on high. The whole process takes about 3 minutes - not bad, but longer than some people might expect.

Final Verdict: I would buy these again only if they are on sale at a real bargain price.
