In the past, when it came to plant-based foods, they were boring and tasteless. But with more and more people choosing to go plant-based, there are tons of options available. In fact, it’s become super trendy, so much so that Whole Foods has released its first-ever plant-based foods trends. Can you guess what the top five were?
Alternative Cheeses
Get excited about charcuterie boards, as there are tons of nut-milk based cheeses that feature gourmet ingredients like dill, chives, and black garlic truffle. You won’t miss regular cheese after tasting these delicious alternatives.
BBQ Food
It used to be that veggie burgers were the only options for vegetarians and vegans, and to be honest, these burgers left a lot to be desired. Now there are tons more options for barbecues like plant-based hot dogs, jackfruit burgers, and Italian-style sausages.
Kids’ Food
Kids’ foods like cheeses, yogurts, popsicles, and chicken nuggets also come in plant-based options, so you’re kids can enjoy their favorites.
Seafood Swaps
Did you know you can get the flaky texture of seafood with banana blossoms and legumes? These seafood swaps are delicious in salads, sandwiches, tacos, and “burgers”.
Non-Dairy Dips
There are tons of plant-based dips like non-dairy queso, “cream cheese”, French onion, and tzatziki, and they’re super creamy and smooth. They taste amazing with veggies or chips.
