Peet’s Coffee recently teamed up with Beyond Meat and Just Egg to launch a new vegan-friendly Everything Plant-Based Sandwich.
Though many brands now offer breakfast sandwiches made with plant-based faux meat patties, these sandwiches usually also feature eggs and cheese, which make them not suitable for vegans. Peet's Coffee wanted to make a fully vegan offering and the result is the new Everything Plant-Based Sandwich. This tasty vegan sandwich consists of a plant-based Beyond Breakfast Sausage patty, topped with plant-based JUST Egg and melted plant-based cheddar cheese. The whole thing is served on a flavorful everything bagel thin. And even though the whole thing is made without meat, eggs, or dairy, the sandwich packs a whopping 21 grams of protein per serving.
