Grilled Chicken-Inspired Meat Alternatives

The Squeaky Bean Chargrilled Mini Fillets are Versatile

The Squeaky Bean Chargrilled Mini Fillets are a grilled chicken-inspired meat alternative product for consumers who are in search of a way to enhance their favorite recipes with a touch of vegan flavor. The product mimics the texture of real chicken using a vegan-friendly recipe and is infused with a smoky flavor that will call to mind meat that has been cooked on the grill. The product is perfect for incorporating into sandwiches, salads, burgers or even eaten on its own to highlight its versatility.

Co-Creator of Squeaky Bean Sarah Augustine spoke on the new Squeaky Bean Chargrilled Mini Fillets saying, "We wanted to create more intense flavour in a totally unique mini fillet shape. As vegan food moves away from simple substitutes, there’s no reason for plant-based food lovers to miss out on tasty grilled flavours and realistic meaty alternatives. Consumer demand for quick and delicious lunchtime meals will no doubt increase during the summer months – whether for post-lockdown picnics or to eat at your desk – so these ready-to-eat Mini Fillets will have you well prepared for the tastiest wraps, tacos, the most epic salads, or whatever you fancy.”
