Central Foods plant-based burgers now better than ever!

Frozen food distributor Central Foods has improved two of its popular plant-based burgers to make them even more appealing

The recipe for the KaterVeg! gluten-free vegan vegetable burgers has been amended to bring it in line with PHE 2024 salt guidelines and to remove gluten and milk as ingredients, giving it the widest customer appeal.

At the same time, the shape of the KaterVeg! vegan quarter pounder has been altered to make it thinner and wider to help provide a quicker cook time and better bun fill. It’s just as juicy and tasty, making it a perfect meat-free option.

Gordon Lauder, MD of Central Foods, said: “We are always looking at ways to improve our products to give our customers the best possible options and we are delighted to be making two of our popular plant-based burgers even more appealing.

“Plant-based and vegan dining continues to be one of the key trends in the food service sector, and with the additional focus that we are seeing on sustainability and cost effectiveness, these two KaterVeg! products are ideal for fast food catering.”

The KaterVeg! vegan quarter pounder is made with seasoned soya protein and onion, and is available in packs of 24. It is still low in sugar and provides a source of fibre, and griddles in around 15-18 minutes from frozen. It is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

The KaterVeg! gluten-free vegan vegetable burgers are a seasoned blend of vegetables and rice and are free from all 14 declarable allergens. Also low in sugar, they are available in packs of 36 and, from frozen, deep fry in around 3 minutes or griddle for around 8 minutes. These tasty plant-based burgers are suitable for coeliacs as well as vegans and vegetarians.
