While it's not hard to dispute the deliciousness of a microwaveable turnover, they could be a lot healthier for you—Gardein is proving that it can be done with three new frozen vegan meat-free meals in the style of a hot pocket.
Rather than being stuffed with meat and cheese, Gardein now offers breaded spheres stuffed with Crispy Chick'n, Meat-Free Italian Sausages and Porkless Pulled BBQ Shreds. In addition to mock meat, the breaded products are also stuffed with vegetables like sweet potatoes, spinach, kale, roasted peppers and ancient grains. These individually-wrapped handheld meals are a great source of iron and protein, perfect for heating up in a matter of minutes as a quick snack or filling lunch.
