PAUL Partners With The Food Medic To Launch New Mostly Vegan Summer Range

PAUL’s new Feel Good Food range is an easy and healthy on-the-go option, developed exclusively in collaboration with NHS Doctor, Registered Associate Nutritionist and best-selling Author Dr Hazel Wallace - aka The Food Medic.

PAUL has worked with Dr Hazel to create a range which promotes a well-balanced diet in response to the increasing demand for more sustainable and vegan options. 

The new healthy offerings are made using ingredients that help keep you fuller for longer, are high in plant-based protein and fibre, rich in omega 3 and low in saturated fat.

The range includes protein-packed salad boxes of jackfruit & mango and tofu & sweet potato, open sandwiches topped with a medley of Mediterranean veggies, and a vegan Reuben sandwich filled with sauerkraut, balsamic beets and vegan gouda

All of the sandwiches use PAUL’s freshly baked natural bread free from additives and preservatives. 

PAUL, together with The Food Medic, has made buying healthy, natural food, slick and sophisticated

In the statement sent to the TheVeganKind, The Food Medic, Dr Hazel Wallace, said: “Finding delicious, healthier alternatives for breakfast or lunch on-the-go isn’t always easy. This Summer, I’ve worked closely with PAUL to create high quality products which reflect people’s growing interest in more sustainable, plant-focused and well-balanced eating options. If you’re planning a picnic or lunch al desko, head to your local PAUL bakery!”
