Ready-to-heat meals provide unparalleled convenience and fans of comfort foods can now appreciate a completely plant-based take on the classics. At Natural Products Expo West, Hungry Planet introduced new Ready to Heat Meals, including vegan Beef Salisbury Steak with smashed potatoes, gravy and green beans. This chef-crafted meatless meal is ready to enjoy in a matter of minutes and it boasts the benefit of being a source of protein and fiber, with fewer calories and less fat (no saturated fats) than conventional and competitor products.
This meatless meal is said to store, prepare, cook and taste just like the conventional Salisbury Steak it takes inspiration from, and it's branded as a "simple switch." Flexitarians will be satisfied by this option, along with other convenient plant-based choices from Hungry Planet like Italian Sausage with Penne and Peppers or Chicken Piccata with Rice and Broccoli.
