With protein in focus, Dr. Praeger's is making it easier for people to hit their daily goals with its new Grillhouse Cheddar Burger, powered by 20g of plant-based protein. This boldly flavored burger patty made with real cheddar cheese melted into every bite is seasoned with a steakhouse-style seasoning blend and vegetables like onions, carrots, sweet potato, and butternut squash. As far as where this meat-free patty gets its protein from, the first ingredient in the Grillhouse Cheddar Burger is hydrated textured soy protein, and fans of cheeseburgers or cheese in general can appreciate that cheddar cheese is listed next.
As part of its freshly launched Grillhouse Burger line, Dr. Praeger's also introduced a plain Grillhouse Burger, another steakhouse-style, meat-free patty packed with protein.
