Vegetarian-Focused Spice Mixes

These Santa Maria Vegetarian Seasoning Mixes are Packed with Flavor

— October 30, 2021 — Marketing
These Santa Maria vegetarian seasoning mixes are being launched by the brand in the UK to provide vegetarian consumers with a way to flavor up their favorite recipes with some premium spice. The products come in the form of the Bean & Corn Taco, Chili & Lime Taco and Enchilada Chili Bean & Cheese, which are all targeted towards the increasing interest in Latin cuisine in the UK market. The seasonings are perfect for adding a burst of flavor to recipes that is specially formulated for vegetarian cuisine.

Marketing Activations Manager at Santa Maria UK Hannah Hurling commented on the new vegetarian seasoning mixes saying, "As people are becoming more aware of their carbon footprint, reducing, or even cutting out meat, has gained popularity. The soaring success of Veganuary and Meat-free Mondays are testimony to this. Mexican is already a hit with vegetarians – the spices and sides are ideal for adding punch to plant-based proteins. With more people now seeking vegetarian alternatives, we wondered whether we could do more to inspire mealtimes. So we asked our flavour experts to create bespoke seasoning mixes with inspiring plant-forward recipes."
