New Vegetarian Burger launched in ASDA stores

UMI Foods has launched another addition to its vegetarian focused product range for ASDA stores in the UK - Mushroom & Spinach Burgers.

The product is the latest in a range developed by UMI Foods for ASDA stores throughout the UK.

The two pack Mushroom & Spinach Burgers, which have just been launched, are produced using local British and Irish mushrooms, smooth cream cheese with fresh baby leaf spinach and sweet caramelised onions.

Taking just 25 minutes to cook from chilled; these meat free alternatives are packed full of flavour with an eye-catching visual providing the consumer with a smooth, crisp bite.

Selling at a RRP of £2 with only 195 calories per burger, with no artificial colours, flavours or hydrogenated fats, the burgers are ideal for those consumers searching for fresh, healthier alternatives at a fair price.

Kevin McManus, commercial manager of UMI Foods, says, "Our focus as an artisan producer of hand prepared vegetable products is to provide consumers with products they will love, whilst continuing to raise the level of innovation within our business.

"The vegetarian and meat-free market has seen strong growth in recent years with research forecasting this to continue as more and more consumers opt for a change in lifestyle and eating habits.

"We're confident that this latest product launch endorsed by the Vegetarian Society will prove to be a hit amongst vegetarians, flexitarians and non-vegetarians looking for something that little bit different."
