The fast-casual restaurant concept I Heart Mac & Cheese is the latest brand to begin offering plant-based alternatives to its regular menu items.
I Heart Mac & Cheese is a fast-casual restaurant that allows guests to order customizable, made-to-order macaroni and cheese bowls and grilled cheese sandwiches. Now guests can further customize their cheesy creations by adding a selection of Beyond Meat products. This includes the Beyond Burger, the Beyond Beef Crumbles, and the Beyond Sausage. All of these new toppers are plant-based sources of protein that allow guests to make their favorite meals vegetarian-friendly.
For those who are looking to create a fully vegan dish, I Heart Mac & Cheese also offers a non-dairy cheese substitute, which is made in-house from a mixture of coconut milk base and a secret spice blend.
