Vegan Mushroom & Jackfruit Bourguignon
(SERVES 4)
Jackfruit recipe
Why should the meat eaters have all the fun? We’ve curated a rich and delicious Bourguignon that’s perfect for the vegan consumer!
More and more food brands are now catering to the demand for vegan alternatives to classic (and typically meat-containing) dishes. This wholesome recipe containing our IQF vegetables and other ready-made plant-based ingredients is the perfect vegan dish for those who want a yummy meal without spending all day in front of the stove!
Jackfruit Protein
The star of this recipe is the jackfruit- a superfood we’re seeing become increasingly popular in vegan/vegetarian food production. Its unique texture is comparable not to its fellow fruits but to meat! It is often used as a replacement for pork in pulled pork but can also be used as a substitute for other meats- like in this Bourguignon. Though Jackfruit has much less protein than meat, it does provide a respectable amount considering it’s a fruit, making it a good addition to a vegan/vegetarian’s daily protein intake.
Jackfruit Nutrition
As well as being a good source of protein, Jackfruit also contains many vitamins and minerals that help keep the body happy and healthy. Jackfruit is high in vitamins A and C as well as being a source of riboflavin, magnesium, potassium, copper, and manganese – it’s certainly a superfood!
