Plant-Based Meals Won 2018

We discovered that most of the recipes you love are plant-based. Cauliflower and zucchini were stand out stars, with avocado still holding on strong. Thanks to the explosion of interest in low carb diets, cauliflower had a banner year and it’s just getting started. Expect to see more plant-based options in your market with the coming new year.
