A plant-based protein nugget formulated with pea protein isolate and enzymatically hydrolyzed pea protein, designed for consumers seeking functional alternatives to conventional poultry nuggets. Each 400g package delivers complete amino acid profile with structural integrity replicating traditional nugget texture and mouthfeel.

Conventional chicken nuggets rely on processed poultry with environmental and ethical considerations. Vitallea's formulation utilizes enzymatically hydrolyzed pea protein for enhanced digestibility and bioavailability, combined with methyl cellulose for fibrous texture replication. Psyllium husk provides binding and moisture retention while contributing additional soluble fiber. The result is a complete protein source with comparable satisfaction to animal-derived alternatives.

Primary protein component for plant-based meal composition. Allergen-friendly alternative eliminating common sensitivities including soy and wheat. Convenient preparation format suitable for family meals, meal prep protocols, and food service applications.

Verified Attributes:

Plant-based and vegan suitable. Twelve-month frozen stability without quality degradation. Sixty-nine percent pea-derived protein content delivering high protein density per serving.
