Strong Roots unveils five tasty plant-based ready meals for Veganuary

Strong Roots, the pioneers of plant-based frozen food, have done it again! Setting out the next step in their mission to make tasty, plant-based food for busy people, they are launching five bold, veggie-packed meals. 

Absolutely delicious and designed for those living very busy lives, each features only the best quality ingredients that are all sustainably sourced.

With their belief that food can be better and that vegetables are the best way forward, Strong Roots' goal is to make eating them as easy and delicious as possible, while also reducing people’s carbon footprint. Making the perfect solution for a quick and healthy midweek meal, each takes just eight minutes to cook from frozen, so just pop in the freezer and you’ll always have a super convenient and super tasty, plant-based meal on hand.

Here’s a rundown on each of the new Good Made Easy Meals:
