IKEA Unveils a Vegan Version of Their Famous Swedish Meatballs Called 'Plant Balls'
The furniture giant unveiled plans on Thursday to bring a new plant ball to stores nationwide this fall, according to a press release. The balls made primarily with yellow pea protein, oats, potatoes, onion and apple are vegan and vegetarian-friendly when served on their own — and are meant to satisfy meat-lovers as well. To achieve the same "look, taste and juicy bite of the IKEA meatball," the company utilized umami-rich ingredients like mushroom, tomato and a powder from roasted vegetables.
