MorningStar Farms Heat-And-Serve Veggie Bowls

New offerings combine bold, globally-inspired flavors and spices to put a veggie spin on classic dishes

November 7, 2016

Editor's Note: Watch the video above to learn more about Heat-And-Serve Veggie Bowls.

MorningStar Farms®, which has been developing plant-based food innovation for more than 40 years, released five new, 100% vegetarian heat-and-eat veggie bowls. The line of easy-to-prepare meals feature bold flavors and offer a unique twist on classic favorites.

Offering internationally-inspired varieties, as well as unique twists on classic favorites, such as Chik'n pot pie with a creamy wine and herb sauce, an Italian veggie sausage bake with creamy béchamel and tomato basil sauces, and vegan Japanese soba noodles with a zesty soy ginger garlic sauce, the new MorningStar Farms bowls deliver full flavor and true-to-meat texture.

"Our new protein-packed veggie bowls combine a blend of flavorful ingredients and seasoning with superior taste and texture," said Todd Smith, director of brand and innovation marketing at MorningStar Farms. "We know that more and more people are looking for convenient and nutritious meal options, including tasty alternatives to meat. That's why we're excited to debut our latest line-up of tasty, veggie-full products that are not just good for you, but that are also good for the planet."

The full collection of new bowl flavors include:

MorningStar Farms Japanese Soba Noodles
A flavorful and authentic tasting blend of soba noodles, veggie Steak Strips, edamame and bamboo shoots in a zesty soy ginger garlic sauce

MorningStar Farms Moroccan Medley
A sweet and spicy blend of peppers, sweet potatoes, green beans and Chik'n Strips over couscous in a spicy Harissa sauce

MorningStar Farms Chik'n Tikka Masala
