Specialist distributor of vegetarian and vegan products, Vegetarian Express has launched Seedbank - an interactive online recipe service for the increasing number of consumers seeking plant-based dishes.
Supplying foodservice business in the UK, Seedbank, exclusive to Vegetarian Express customers, will provide its customers with the tools to create a wealth of vegan and vegetarian recipes.
The recipe collection can be filtered by meal occasion, world flavour inspiration, or main ingredient for example, and each dish features a full ingredient list and detailed method of preparation. Recipes can be read online or downloaded, and have been fully analysed nutritionally, with allergen and diet sensitivities listed alongside. Everything from grab and go quick meals to fine-dining dishes are included.
Additionally, each recipe has been analysed to show its environmental benefit in relation to CO² saving, land utilisation and water usage, when compared to a meat alternative. For example, the Korean Tempeh Burger recipe - which serves four people and offers a great alternative to beef - saves 0.3kg of CO²; 82m² of land and 5,272 litres of water.
