Turn to Central Foods for National Vegetarian Week 10-16 May 2021
We have all the ingredients to help prepare the perfect menu for National Vegetarian Week, which this year runs from 10th to 16th May.
Choose from a wide range of tasty plant-based options that are ideal for starters, tapas, takeaways, lunches, dinners, afternoon tea or any other dining occasion.
Recently launched to the food service sector is our KaterVeg! vegan range, including a Quarterpounder, 15g Meatballs, 50g Sausage and 28g Banger, which follows the successful launch of our KaterVeg! IQF Vegan Mince last year.
Made with seasoned textured soya protein, the delicious new products are high in protein. They are also low in saturated fat, low in sugar, a source of fibre and have salt levels below PHE 2024 targets.
They make catering for National Vegetarian Week super easy – offering a convenient way to serve meat-free menu swaps for popular and traditional culinary options.
MD of Central Foods, Gordon Lauder, says: “National Vegetarian Week is the chance for food service operators to promote great-tasting veggie dishes. Here at Central Foods, we pride ourselves on offering a superb selection of meat-free items across the sector. Whether you are catering in a bar, restaurant or hotel, or in a care home, school or university, we have vegetarian and vegan products to suit your menu.”
Environmentally friendly
There are sound environmental reasons for shining the spotlight on plant-based and meat-free meals.
Food produced for a veggie diet uses less water and produces fewer carbon emissions - the Vegetarian Society estimates that eating vegetarian food for a year saves the same amount of emissions as taking a small family car off the road for six months. They say choosing more vegetarian food is one of the best things we can do for the planet.
