Sainsbury’s releases 25 new vegan products – including 5 pizzas and seitan bacon!

Sainsbury’s is expanding its vegetarian and vegan ranges ahead of Veganuary, introducing 25 new plant-based products.

Ahead of what is set to be a record-breaking Veganuary, Sainsbury’s supermarket has launched 25 new delicious plant-based products to give people going vegan this January plenty of choice and options of what to eat.

The latest additions to Sainsbury’s plant-based product offering comes as a response to soaring demand, and the supermarket now offers over 100 products for customers looking for meat-free options.

Sainsbury’s Plant-based

From succulent ‘smoky’ Jackfruit Quarter Pounders with a satisfying meaty texture, to mouth-watering vegan Chorizo-Style Shroomdogs, and Sainsbury’s break-out star – the ‘Shroomdog’ – back in party-ready cocktail size as the ‘Shroompup’, these delectable new plant-based alternatives are enough to entice even the most carnivorous of customers.

Succulent and juicy, these meat-free alternatives are perfect for those looking to enjoy all the flavour and texture of meat in plant-based form.   

Vegan Frozen

The new chilled range will be joined by convenient, high quality frozen vegan products such as vegan ‘shrimp’ and ‘salmon’ Sophie’s Kitchen and frozen meal-kits from Lazy Vegan.

For the first time in the UK, the supermarket will also be stocking products from popular Canadian meat-alternative brand Gardein, including Fishless Filets and Classic Meatless Balls as well as Mandarin Orange Crispy Chick’n and Sizzling Szechuan Beefless Strips for the perfect plant-based stir fry.

Love Your Veg! pizzas

Sainsbury’s is also launching a range of plant-based pizzas that are sure to win over the whole family. Perfect for those who want a healthier alternative to their favourite mealtime treat, the Love Your Veg! pizza range includes three vegan pizzas that count towards one of your five a day, as well as being packed with fibre and protein.

From Spicy Masala Chickpea to Roasted Butternut & Charred Broccoli there’s a topping to please every pizza lover.
