There are tons of options on the market when it comes to meatless chicken, beef and pork, and Clo-Clo Vegan Foods is helping to make plant-based shrimp more widely accessible thanks to three new nourishing bowls. These vegan seafood bowls rely on konjac root as an alternative ingredient for mimicking the taste, look and texture of real shrimp.
The free-from bowls, available in varieties like Red Curry Shrimp, Hawaiian Shrimp and Shrimp Alfredo, contain no cholesterol, trans fat, dairy, soy, eggs, shellfish, gluten or tree nuts. The plant-based shrimp is combined with ingredients like colorful peppers, rice and globally inspired sauces to create quick and easy meatless meals with up to six grams of protein per bowl.
As Wendy Hinnenkamp, VP of Clo-Clo Vegan Foods, says "More than ever, today’s consumers are looking for plant-based seafood solutions that are packed with flavor and convenience while being more conscious about the food they eat and products they buy."
