Jada debuts plant-based Porkless Mix and Mediterranean Chick’n Mix

US vegan brand Jada has expanded its line of plant-based dry meat mixes with two new varieties: Porkless Mix and Mediterranean Chick’n Mix.

The shelf-stable products are made with a combination of textured wheat protein, pea protein and pea fibre.

Plant-based Porkless Mix and Plant-Based Mediterranean Chick’n Mix join the brand’s original Plant-based Unseasoned Chick’n Mix, which launched last November on business reality TV show Shark Tank.

The mixes are designed for at-home cooks looking to create their own meat-free dishes – simply mix in water and oil to form a mince, shape and cook.

Jada says its Porkless Mix can be used to create crumbles, sausage links and vegan meatballs and cutlets; while its Mediterranean Chick’n Mix can be used to create vegan chicken breasts and patties.

Each serving of the new products contains 21g of plant-based protein, 125 calories and is said to be rich in vitamin B12. The plant-based mixes are also free of soy, preservatives, sugar and cholesterol.

“Our new Porkless Mix and Mediterranean Chick’n Mix make it easy to prepare high-protein, plant-based meats with personalised taste and flair,” said Khasha Touloei, founder of Jada.

“By just mixing in water and oil, customers are given a base that they can shape and season as they’d like in a variety of recipes. From Mediterranean chick’n and potatoes to porkless meatballs with pasta, the culinary possibilities are endless.”

Jada’s new plant-based meat mixes have an SRP of $8.99.
