Blended Rice Alternatives

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Green Giant Riced Veggies Blends are Gluten-Free Rice Alternatives

— May 29, 2020 — Lifestyle
Green Giant Riced Veggies Blends are gluten-free rice alternatives that are made with simple combinations of vegetables and legumes that are free from sauces and seasonings. While Green Giant is known for is frozen Veggie Swap-Ins line,
these new additions are made in varieties like Red Lentil, Green Pea and Chickpea or Chickpea Cauliflower, and they can be purchased in the dry food aisle. The three Green Giant Riced Veggies Blend varieties boast 180 calories per serving, as well as nourishing sources of plant-based protein.

Now that many health-conscious consumers are swapping out ingredients like broccoli and cauliflower for rice, other rice alternatives are emerging to help people get even more vegetables into their diets.
