Inside BENEO’s new pulse plant: pioneering sustainable protein from faba beans
Nestlé has launched Maggi Nutri-licious Chatpata Besan Noodles which are rich in protein and fibre
Nestlé is expanding its culinary portfolio with high-protein products across key geographies. This includes solutions developed to meet specific nutritional needs under new brands, as well as the continuous innovation of its core brands.
The company recently introduced high-protein foods to support GLP-1 users and consumers focused on weight management under its new Vital Pursuit brand. One example is the Vermont White Cheddar Mac & Broccoli Bowl, a high-protein pasta dish that incorporates pea protein into the pasta without compromising on taste and texture.
In total, the Vital Pursuit range features 14 delicious frozen meals that are available in different formats such as sandwiches, pizzas and bowls. Crafted by a diverse group of experts including chefs, nutritionists and experts at the Nestlé R&D Centre for food in Solon, Ohio, these thoughtfully portioned meals are high in protein and made with nutrient-dense ingredients such as vegetables and whole grains. All products are now available at large retailers nationwide in the United States.
In India, Nestlé has launched Maggi Nutri-licious Chatpata Besan Noodles which are rich in protein and fibre. The innovative offering for the first time incorporates locally sourced chickpea flour, popularly known as ‘Besan,’ as a base ingredient in the noodles.
