For R89 box, or R529 for a case of six, the alternative meats can be enjoyed in more ways than one. According to the company, the plant-based Chorizo Crumbles are perfect on tacos, nachos, pasta or with breakfast scramble.Bacon can easily be incorporated into dishes such as salads, pasta, and pizzas or as a breakfast side. Or for a recipe that requires whole muscle cuts, the Traditional Chunks easily take on the seasoning and flavour of the dish.
