If you're officially on the Beyond Burger bandwagon, you'll be thrilled to know there's yet another restaurant where you can score this meat substitute : Just Salad.
As of September 12th, the fast-casual chain (located in the New York City area, Chicago, Philadelphia, Florida, and North Carolina) is eliminating all beef from the menu, and replacing it with Beyond Meat . Instead of grilled steak, they'll now offer Beyond's plant-based meatballs as a protein option, available as an add-on to salads, wraps, or warm bowls. Each four-meatball serving offers 16 grams of protein .
The new meatballs will also star in Just Salad's vegetarian Keto Zoodle Bowl, made with zoodles (zucchini noodles), grape tomatoes, roasted balsamic mushrooms, and shaved parmesan. (To make it vegan , just ditch the cheese.)
