Daring Foods introduces new frozen entrées

Plant-based chicken brand Daring Foods has expanded its portfolio with the launch of a new frozen entrée convenience meal range.

Available across the US, the new range is 100% plant-based, gluten-free and offers 16g of protein per meal.

The meals are designed to provide a healthy and nutritious choice for health-conscious consumers seeking tasty on-the-go options. They range from 350-460 calories per pack and can be microwaved in 3.5 minutes.

Daring’s frozen entrée range is launching with five varieties to choose from, including a collaboration with sauce brand Fly By Jing featuring white rice, peas, carrots and a blend of Fly By Jing’s Sichuan Chili Crisp and Daring’s Original Plant Chicken Pieces.

The brand’s Cajun Plant Chicken Pieces are featured in a spicy fajita bowl product alongside white rice, fajita spice and peppers and onions; while its Teriyaki Plant Chicken Pieces are combined with broccoli, white rice and teriyaki sauce for the teriyaki chicken bowl option.

Its Original Plant Chicken Pieces are also included in a Harvest Plant bowl, made with roasted sweet potatoes, kale, brown rice and chimichurri sauce; and a Penne Primavera bowl, made with gluten-free pasta, courgetti, peas, roasted peppers, garlic and herbs.

Daring’s plant-based chicken is made with just six ingredients, aiming to provide a better-for-you plant-based alternative to animal-based chicken within the food system.

Ross Mackay, CEO and founder of Daring Foods, said: “We’ve always been on a mission to transform the category by offering delicious plant-based options that embrace diverse tastes and dietary preferences”.

He added: “Our latest frozen entrée bowls represent a significant step forward in redefining plant-based cuisine while staying true to our commitment to authenticity and simplicity”.
