Meatless Imitation Meals

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Oh My Veggies Vegetarian Salisbury Steak Recipe is Chuck-Less

— May 7, 2015 — Lifestyle
The Oh My Veggies Vegetarian Salisbury Steak recipe delivers an excellent alternative for those who enjoy the taste of meat without actually consuming it. Author Kiersten Frase developed the recipe through a careful trial and error process involving varying amounts of oats and condiments.

Contributing to the health-conscious themes present in this dish is the way in which it is cooked. Although classic Salisbury steaks are cooked in a pan with gravy, Frase baked the ingredients in the oven.

Replacing heaps of chuck in this dish are mushrooms, lentils and grains. The consistency is akin to ground beef. Despite its veggie underpinnings, the meal delivers traditional flavors through sage, tamari and Worcestershire sauce. Mashed potato and spinach pairings add further appeal to this substitute that will suit the culinary interests of health-conscious diners.
Trend Themes
1. Meatless Imitation Meals - The rise of meatless imitation meals offers a disruptive innovation opportunity for food manufacturers to cater to the growing demand for plant-based alternatives.
2. Health-conscious Dishes - The trend towards health-conscious dishes presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for restaurants and food delivery services to create flavorful and nutritious meat substitutes.
3. Alternative Cooking Methods - The adoption of alternative cooking methods like baking instead of pan-frying provides a disruptive innovation opportunity for kitchen appliance manufacturers to develop new products and recipes.
Industry Implications
1. Food Manufacturing - Food manufacturers can embrace the trend of meatless imitation meals to develop and produce a wide range of innovative plant-based alternatives.
2. Restaurant and Food Delivery - Restaurants and food delivery services can tap into the demand for health-conscious dishes by offering delicious and satisfying meat-free options.
3. Kitchen Appliance Manufacturing - Kitchen appliance manufacturers can capitalize on the popularity of alternative cooking methods by designing and marketing appliances that cater to the needs of health-conscious consumers.
