Banana Blossom is a fish alternative that can be made into goujons

Sainsbury’s has unveiled a new own-label plant-based range ahead of Veganuary. 

Plant Pioneers, which was partially released in selected stores in October, is set for a national rollout in store and online on New Year’s Day. 

The range of 31 plant-based ambient, chilled and frozen lines includes fresh meat alternatives like vegan steaks and Shroomballs as well as plant-based comfort food lines like Fishless Fingers and Southern Fried Bites. 

The retailer said the new range was in response to “soaring demand” for plant-based products which are becoming “increasinly mainstream” in the UK.

Sainsbury’s said this Middle-Eastern inspired product paired well with flatbread or couscous

“With more than seven million vegetarians in Britain and the meteoric rise of the flexitarian lifestyle, Britain has certainly got the taste for meat alternatives at meal times,” said Sainsbury’s Plant Pioneers product developer Charlotte Gledhill.

“Our new range of plant-based products provide innovative and truly delicious options to take the hassle out of cooking flexitarian. We hope to maintain our position as a leading provider of plant-based alternatives in 2020.”
