I grew up with a mom who is part Buddhist, part Catholic. Confused? Well, that’s for another blog post. The reason why I shared this tidbit is because I learned to love veggies and veggie-meat through her. Thank goodness Shakey’s Philippines is offering meat-free pizzas until March 31, replacing our favorite meat toppings (beef, bacon, pepperoni) with UK food company QuornTM. Shakey’s has launched their new Premium meat-free pizzas that are suprisingly delicious!
What is QuornTM? They are meat substitutes made from Mycoprotein, and are a nutritionally healthy protein source, gluten-free, naturally low in saturated fat, and rich in fiber. I’ve tasted them before their intimate event at Beyond Yoga at my parents’, because, of course, my mom had to try it! It has that familiar taste and texture of meat, minus the big calories, if that is what you’re most worried about.
There are two Quorn Pizza flavors: Protein Surprise and Cheesy Chick’N.
The Protein Surprise has “everything on it”, packed with succulent QuornTM Chicken Style Pieces and QuornTM Pepperoni, made extra special with black olives, bell peppers, onions, mushroom, and pineapple bits.
The Cheesy Chick’N pizza has QuornTM Chicken-style pieces, onions, bell peppers, cheddar cheese, drizzled with cheese sauce.
Guests were treated to a private yoga session at Beyond Yoga, Serendra. I got there late, so I didn’t join the session anymore. Had a great time catching up with fellow mommies 🙂
