Vegetarian Nugget Lettuce Wraps

Plant based solution.

For chicken nugget lovers looking for a meat alternative, Raised & Rooted Nuggets Made With Plants are a crispy, golden, tempura-battered, plant based solution. These soy-free pea protein nuggets deliver a satisfying crunch when biting into the meat-like interior that offers a mouthwatering texture which customers are familiar with, yet they are made entirely with plant based ingredients.
