Beyond Classic Meatballs and Spaghetti

Posted by MeghanOonaClifford on

I’m a proud shareholder of Beyond Meat! It’s the only stock I ever bought, but that’s how much I believe in this product. I normally don’t feature mock meat meals here on the blog, but I’m so impressed with Beyond that I had to share.

Proud shareholder!

Beyond Meat is both revolutionary and delicious. Fast food restaurants now carrying Beyond Meat include Subway, Dunkin’, TGI Friday’s, Hardees, Carls Jr., Del Taco, Veggie Grill, Next Level Burger, Canadian McDonalds, and KFC is next.

Plus Disney World now carries it throughout the park. That’s a LOT of plant-based meals reaching a LOT of people. That means SO MANY ANIMAL lives are saved.

Bonus: Beyond Meat is gluten-free and soy-free. It has as much protein and fat as regular beef but more fiber. (Animal meat has no fiber).

Plant-based meats are the future! It’s easy, yummy, and COMPASSIONATE.

This classic meatball recipe is warming, comforting, super satisfying, and loaded with flavor.
