TORONTO, Oct. 28, 2020 /CNW/ - Gardein, a brand of
Conagra Brands, Inc. (NYSE: CAG) is helping Canadians break-up
their everyday routine in new and exciting ways. When things get
dull it's important to switch things up and sometimes that means
you need to cheat. On meat that is.
The brand is encouraging Canadians to take its cheating
challenge and substitute Gardein's delicious plant-based products
for meat in their favourite recipes at least one day a week. Try
Sunday brunch with plant-based Maple Breakfast Saus'age Patties,
pasta night with spaghetti and Meatless Meatballs or Fishless
Filets with tangy slaw.
"Getting stuck in a rut in your everyday routine can impact your
happiness in your personal life and with the people you love. As an
expert in the study of relationships, confidence and achieving
balance, I can attest to this," says Kimberly Moffit, Relationship Therapist and
Expert. "Small, easy changes to your everyday routine and a desire
to try new things (even in the kitchen) is so important to keeping
daily life exciting! I love the idea of taking a break from what
you're used to and cheating, that is, when it's on meat."
