As we approach the long-awaited Easter weekend many of us are looking forward to gathering with loved ones. Whether hosting or visiting, the Easter meal is a real highlight this time of year!
With the rise of flexitarianism, veganism and vegetarianism, it’s likely you may have to cater to a meat-free menu at your upcoming gathering. Recent research actually shows that one in three Australians are either ‘flexitarians’ or meat-reducers.
Enter MEET. An Aussie-made, family-run range of plant-based goodness. 15 years in the making, MEET has the closest taste and texture to meat, making it perfect for those who just love the meat experience but want to reduce their meat intake for dietary, ethical or environmental reasons. With its MEETballs and Chicken style tenders now available in Coles, MEET is a simple and accessible way to make sure the whole family will enjoy their Easter meal.
To help you cater to all tastes and preferences this Easter, we suggest making a plant-based version of everyone’s favourite meal – delicious, homemade burgers.
