NEW YORK — Banza, the popular brand of chickpea-based foods such as pizza and pasta, announced two new plant-based pizza varieties that will be hitting the shelves this month.
The two new pies are both vegetarian and are a result of the brand’s partnership with two pioneers of the plant-based meat and cheese world, Beyond Meat and Follow Your Heart. The new Supreme pizza is a spin on the traditional supreme, featuring tomato sauce, dairy-based mozzarella, provolone and white cheddar, red onions, and red and green peppers, and is topped with Beyond Sausage Italian Crumbles. The other new flavor is not only vegetarian but also vegan, with ingredients including tomato sauce with caramelized onion and roasted garlic, and is topped with Follow Your Heart’s creamy plant-based mozzarella.
