Spring has clearly sprung over at Native Foods with the launch of a fresh Spring Menu that includes mount-watering new dishes like the Chicken Fajita Cheesesteak and the Wasabi Crabcake Sandwich.
For spring 2022, the vegan fast-casual brand Native Foods has launched a creative new menu that takes inspiration from the bold colors of springtime. Newly appointed Executive Chef for Native Foods, Chris Bertke, explains, "It's unique for us to have a menu that changes as the seasons change because most fast-casual restaurant concepts lack that elevated aspect to their menu."
One of the standouts from the new menu is the Chicken Fajita Cheesesteak, which offers a plant-based twist on both fajitas and a classic cheesesteak sandwich. More specifically, this sandwich consists of plant-based chicken, plant-based cheese sauce, bell peppers, red onion, fresh cilantro, and chipotle sauce – all served on a toasted baguette.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Plant-based Fast Food
- There is a growing trend toward offering plant-based options on fast food menus, allowing customers to make healthier and more environmentally friendly choices.
- Seasonal Menu Offerings
- Introducing seasonal menu items can add an aspect of novelty and excitement for customers, generating repeat business and positive brand association.
- Innovative Twists on Classic Dishes
- Reimagining traditional dishes with plant-based ingredients allows for a wider variety of dietary options and can attract a more health-conscious customer base.
Sectors Adopting This
- Fast Food
- Fast food restaurants have an opportunity to attract a larger customer base by offering plant-based options on their menus.
- Restaurant
- Seasonal menu offerings can drive traffic and increase revenue for restaurants, especially those looking to differentiate themselves from competitors.
- Food Manufacturing
- Creating innovative plant-based alternatives to classic dishes can position food manufacturing companies as leaders in the evolving food industry and capture market share.
