Plant-Based Mince, Firm (Soy or Pea Protein)

Plant-Based Mince, Firm (Soy or Pea Protein) is a versatile plant-based mince commonly used as a vegan substitute for ground meat in dishes like Bolognese, tacos and shepherd's pie; it is typically made from soy or pea protein and sold as firm crumbles. Nutritionally it is a concentrated plant protein source, providing about 18g of protein per 100 g, along with fibre and some healthy omega-3 fats from added seeds or oils. It delivers a strong amino-acid profile for a plant product and can help with satiety, though like many processed meat alternatives it may contain modest amounts of saturated fat and added salt compared with whole-food plant swaps.
