Prepared meals company Dineamic has teamed up with food-tech company Future Farm to create five new plant-based meals.
Karen Inge, a dietitian and founder of Dineamic, said the partnership sprouted from a noticeable increase in consumer demand for plant-based meal options.
“As a company that has always tried to make healthy eating accessible, regardless of cooking ability or dietary preferences, we felt an instant connection with Future Farm’s ethos and range of products,” said Inge.
She added that all meals are dietitian and nutritionist-approved, with accessible nutritional information for customers.
The new sets of meals include Pumpkin & Future Mince Bolognese with Ravioli; Harissa Future Meatballs with Vegetable Couscous; and Future Meatballs with Creamy Tomato Sauce and Casarecce.
MasterChef 2021 winner and Future Farm ambassador Justin Narayan created two plant-based meals in the range: Future Mince Sri Lankan Curry with Rice & Broccoli; and Umami Mushroom & Future Mince Stir-Fry with Rice & Green Beans.
“Tapping into Sri Lankan and Chinese cuisine, I crafted two tasty meals with Future Mince. Because Future Mince tastes just like real mince, I could easily bring out the bold, unique flavours in each dish,” he said.
Future Farm’s plant-based proteins are made from vegan ingredients such as peas, soy, chickpeas, and beetroot powder, which are free from artificial flavours and colours, are non-GMO and ethically sourced.
Marcos Leta, the founder of Future Farm, said the partnership was a natural fit, with both companies focusing on using good ingredients for people and the planet.
“Our plants-only ingredients are the best of the best: clean, nourishing and sustainably sourced. Each fake meat mimics the taste, texture and tenderness of real meat, making them suitable meal options for vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians alike,” explained Leta.
The Dineamic x Future Farm range is available for RRP$11.50 each at Dineamoc’s website, and at select Woolworths, Coles, and IGA stores next year
