The Real Good Food Company collaborated with Beyond Meat on a nutritious grain-free pizza that was intentionally created to be "higher in protein and lower in carbohydrates than conventional frozen pizzas." The high-protein pizza is made with plant-powered Beyond Meat Sausage and real ingredients that make it easy to enjoy a wholesome entree or snack.
The nutrient-dense pizza speaks to consumers who crave more plant-based and vegetarian options, as well as those who are looking for a macronutrient ratio that can be difficult to find within the frozen food category. The protein-packed pizza boasts eight grams of carbs per serving and 19 grams of protein, and it's full of flavor thanks to traditional toppings like mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce.
