CHICAGO, April 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Pasta night is getting a whole lot tastier with ZENB, an online plant-based food brand that is expanding its product line with the launch of its Gourmet Pasta Sauce. This is the first of several mealtime solutions to come from the growing brand. Shared exclusively with The Ellen DeGeneres Show audience yesterday, this flavorful innovation has one cup of veggies in each serving and is a perfect pairing with the brand's highly praised 100% yellow pea pasta, making ZENB a one-stop-shop for a delicious pasta night.

ZENB debuts its first mealtime solution with the introduction of ZENB Gourmet Pasta Sauce.

Launching with two flavors, Roasted Tomato, Garlic, & Basil and Sweet Carrot & Tomato Marinara, ZENB Gourmet Sauce is made using whole vegetables, including the seeds of tomatoes and skin of carrots, to inspire food waste reduction and provide a good source of fiber (see website nutrition facts for sodium and fat content). It's also non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan and has no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. Each sauce features vibrant blends of herbs, vegetables and seasoning and is a great addition to a plant-powered lifestyle that does not compromise taste.

ZENB Gourmet Sauce is versatile and designed to add whole veggie goodness to a variety of mealtime favorites, such pasta, soup, pizza, casserole and more. For savory inspiration, visit ZENB.com/blogs/recipes to check out more than 40 recipes featuring ZENB's new Gourmet Sauce, including ZENB Pizza-Stuffed Mushrooms, an easy ZENB Gazpacho and a sizzling ZENB Memphis BBQ Sauce.

ZENB Gourmet Sauce is the latest addition to the brand's growing portfolio, which includes ZENB Pasta, Veggie Bites and Veggie Sticks. ZENB Pasta was introduced in November 2020 as one of the first single-ingredient yellow pea pastas that provides the same taste and texture as traditional pasta.

The debut of ZENB Gourmet Sauce with ZENB Pasta is the brand's first complete mealtime product duo, supporting its mission to provide accessible and delicious plant-based options that consumers can feel good about. A complete meal can be ready within a matter of minutes, simply cook the pasta, heat the sauce, and enjoy a balanced and veggie-filled meal.

"At ZENB, each of our products are designed with a larger purpose in mind," said Taichi Sakabe, COO of ZENB U.S., Inc. "We are constantly challenging ourselves and our community to rethink food culture with delicious products that harness the goodness of nature and can be the center of our everyday lives. The ZENB Gourmet Sauce launch is a catalyst for many more plant-centered product innovations to come, allowing us to make plant-powered snack and mealtime solutions more convenient than ever."

ZENB Gourmet Sauce is exclusively available at ZENB.com/ZENBGourmetSauce. For the perfect plant-powered pasta meal, first-time customers can choose their favorite sauce flavor and pasta shape with the Create Your Own ZENB Pasta and ZENB Gourmet Sauce Starter Pack for $14.99 with free shipping.
