These vegan sausage egg and cheese rolls are a spin off our one of our most favorite sandwiches before going vegan.
There’s something about the combination of sausage, egg, and cheese (all vegan in our case) that is just so good together. The melty cheese, the soft and fluffy egg, and the juicy sausage.
It’s really only rivaled by it’s bacon counterpart when it comes to breakfast sandwiches.
This is also similarly close to our vegan breakfast pizza that is a must try if you haven’t had it yet.
One reason that cinnamon rolls are so love is that they are portable way to eat an amazing breakfast.
Now, you can have a savory breakfast option on the go as well. They are also a great way to serve

The sausage we used isn’t gluten free or soy free; however, you could use a different sausage that is soy free like Beyond breakfast sausage and just chop it small or Lightlife breakfast patties and chop them up.
Lastly, use a safe soy free vegan butter, like Earth Balance soy free and a safe vegan shredded cheese depending on your allergens.
WHERE CAN I BUY VEGAN SAUSAGE?
We have found vegan at a variety of stores. Whole Foods and Wegmans, as well as local grocery stores, like Shoprite and Acme, and our local natural health food store.
At the local grocery stores, it is in the section where tofu is located, usually in the produce department.
