PRODUCED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH GOOD AND BEAN SUPREME


Bean Supreme’s new range of plant-based foods makes it easy to create quick, delicious and nutritious meals.


It may be common knowledge that reducing the amount of meat we consume is better for the planet, and also better for us, but sometimes with vegetarian food, flavour or texture can get sacrificed in the process.


Bean Supreme puts flavour first when creating recipes because plant-based food can taste amazing when you start with quality ingredients and treat them with care like you would in your own kitchen at home.


At the forefront of Bean Supreme’s philosophy is providing Kiwis with choice.


Bean Supreme makes tofu fresh every day from whole non-GMO soybeans and has done for almost 40 years as the first NZ-made tofu sold to supermarkets nationwide.


The range has expanded over the years, but the products are designed with all types of foodies in mind – some cater to those who choose to eliminate all animal products from their diet, while other products are more suitable for vegetarians and flexitarians.


There is no pressure to completely overhaul your way of eating  – it’s about putting options on the table.


Bean Supreme has a strong focus on sourcing locally where possible, always sustainably, and never using palm oil.


And giving back is right up there as a priority, with the brand providing monthly financial support to SPCA, offering schools and community groups low-cost fundraising sausages, and donating tofu for more than 20 years to the Otorohanga Kiwi House – did you know kiwi love to eat tofu?

So, if you’re looking to reduce the amount of meat in your diet, or you’re just after some more tasty options for your home meal menu, Bean Supreme has made it really easy to create delicious and convenient options to swap out some meaty meals each week.


All you need to do is match Bean Supreme’s range to some of your favourite recipes – the Bean Supreme website has some intriguing twists on easy weekday dinner meals for you to try out on your friends and family.
