This Trader Joe’s Soy Chorizo is a staple of TJ’s vegan and gluten free section. I can’t say I eat vegan or gluten free things a lot but this has a nice spicy kick and breaks apart easily. This can easily be put into chili or stews and be substituted for any sausage or meat. Although the price of TJs soy chorizo has risen to $2.29 from $1.99 it is still a great value compared to other places.
The one thing I was surprised at is that it looks like more of a firm sausage in the casing and package than it really is. This may be totally normal for vegan meat substitutes but if you aren’t used to the way this crumbles you may disappointed. But overall TJs continues to have a ton of good vegan options, almost all of them priced well below places like Whole Foods or other natural groceries..…….

Trader Joe’s Soy Chorizo Recipes
Soy chorizo is one product I really need help with for some great nutritional recipes! What do all my vegan and gluten free readers put this in or cook this in? Let me know and I will share some of the best and most unique ones after I try a few. Is there a go to recipe that this chorizo is the star in? I think I’ve heard almost as much about this spicy soy chorizo recipes as I have the cookie butter from friends of mine. People love this! There is only 140 calories per serving in TJ’s soy chorizo which also makes it a pretty healthy way to get your vegan and gluten free calories in. And if you can’t make it out to TJs, give these items a try….

We absolutely love this stuff! It’s one of our favorite breakfast meals. It’s not fatty or heavy like regular chorizo. Tons of flavor too! It always makes the TJ shopping list…..
Thanks Sam. Trader Joe’s Soy Chorizo is definitely a healthy alternative to super fatty regular chorizo!
This is one of our favorite Trader Joe’s item. We usually cook about half of it in a pan, scramble it with a couple eggs & serve it on a tortilla with some sliced avocado. Put some hot sauce on the top & you’ve got yourself a breakfast taco.
Good call Bill. I love soy chorizo in breakfast tacos and burritos!
Please tell me what constitutes the spices listed on the package. I love the taste of Trader Joe’s Soy Chorizo which has improved over the years. I bought a package a couple of weeks ago and have been using it in eggs and other dishes. I think my digestive system is having a bad reaction to the spices. I need to know what they are. Thanks!
