US meat alternatives brand Daring Foods has launched six new frozen skillet meals, debuting at Sprouts stores nationwide this month with additional retailers to follow later in the year.

The new one-pan meals aim to deliver complete, balanced and convenient meals for consumers in around ten minutes, combining Daring’s signature plant-based chicken alternative with vegetables, grains, legumes and pasta.

It marks the brand’s largest multi-SKU product introduction to date, building on Daring’s expansion into convenient, complete meal options.

Five of the six meals will launch exclusively at Sprouts, with additional retailers to carry the full line later in 2027.

The six varieties include:

• Mediterranean-Spiced Chickpeas & Veggies – chickpeas, peppers, red onion, garlic and shawarma-inspired spices

• Smoky Veggie Chili – beans and vegetables in a smoky tomato sauce

• Power Grains & Beans – quinoa, kale, edamame, red pepper, chilli and onion

• Lemon & Garlic Rotini – pasta and vegetables in a lemon and garlic sauce

• Teriyaki Veggie Stir-Fry – broccoli, peppers, mushrooms, water chestnuts and edamame in teriyaki sauce

• Penne Pomodoro – pasta, red peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes in a tomato sauce

Each skillet meal provides 21-25g of protein and 9-13g of fibre per serving, averaging around 50g of protein and 20g of fibre per bag. All varieties are 100% plant-based, gluten-free and non-GMO.

The bags contain 2.5 servings, prepared in one pan to deliver a nutritious and quick option for lunch or dinner. They build on Daring’s expansion into single-serve microwaveable entrée bowls and last year’s launch of microwaveable Original Diced and Shredded Plant Chicken varieties.

JJ Kass, VP of sales at Daring, said: “Shoppers are increasingly looking for convenient meals that deliver on more than one need. Skillet Meals bring together protein, fibre, convenience and globally inspired flavours.”

“We’re thrilled to introduce these new items to Sprouts shoppers, who are highly engaged in discovering innovative, better-for-you products that make eating well easier without compromising on taste.”
