Quorn is a popular meat substitute made primarily from mycoprotein, a protein-rich fungus-derived ingredient. Originally developed in the UK, it has become a staple in vegetarian and vegan cuisines worldwide. Quorn products vary but often include added egg whites or plant-based binders for texture, making some options vegetarian-friendly rather than fully vegan. Known for its low fat and calorie count, Quorn provides a substantial serving of protein and fiber, supporting muscle maintenance and digestion. It’s also free from cholesterol and trans fats, making it a heart-healthy choice. However, it’s worth noting that some individuals may experience sensitivities to mycoprotein, and certain products may have added sodium or preservatives. Quorn’s versatility allows it to feature in dishes like stir-fries, curries, stews, and pasta, offering a nutritious alternative to meat for those seeking plant-forward meals.
