Squeaky Bean has unveiled two brand-new plant-based pies, serving up comfort food with a gut-friendly twist just in time for autumn
Plant-based brand Squeaky Bean is expanding its popular meat-free range with two tasty new additions that are loaded with flavour and gut-health benefits.
The new Braised Veggie Pie and Spanish Chorizo Style Pie (both 209g with an RRP of £3.75) will be landing in Tesco stores nationwide from 6th October, expanding the brand’s growing range of vegan convenience foods.
Gut health has become one of the biggest talking points in food this year, and Squeaky Bean is leaning into the trend by adding naturally fermented vegetables to the filling that not only enhance flavour but also deliver a boost for the digestive system.
The Braised Veggie Pie puts vegetables centre stage, with a shortcrust pastry base filled with a medley of naturally fermented vegetables in a rich ale gravy, all topped with golden puff pastry. The fermentation process not only boosts flavour but also delivers gut-friendly benefits.
For those seeking a bolder bite, the Spanish Chorizo Style Pie combines butter beans, courgettes and fermented vegetables inside crisp shortcrust pastry, finished with a puff pastry lid. The result is a hearty, smoky flavour inspired by classic Spanish chorizo, but completely plant-based.
The new vegan pies from Squeaky Bean join the company's extensive range of ready-to-eat, protein-packed vegan products such as Smoked Salmon Style Slices, snackable bites, and a variety of sandwich slices
Gut-friendly option
Brand Manager Katie Atkin explained that the new pies were created to answer growing demand for plant-based foods that don’t compromise on taste.
She said the range is designed to put vegetables in the spotlight while still delivering the hearty textures consumers often associate with meat. Fermentation, she added, brings “a rich umami depth and subtle zing” that makes the pies stand out as a flavourful, gut-friendly option.
Perfect as a quick and easy midweek dinner or as the centrepiece of a vegan roast dinner, both pies can be baked straight from the packet and paired with mashed potatoes and vegetables for the ultimate comfort food.
The new additions join Squeaky Bean’s extensive vegan range, which includes ready-to-eat, protein-packed products such as Cooking Chorizo Style Sausage, Tuna Style Flakes, Crispy Bacon Style Strips, Salmon Style Flakes, Chargrilled Steak Style Strips and a variety of sandwich slices.
The Squeaky Bean Braised Veggie Pie (209g) and Spanish Chorizo Style Pie (209g) will be available in Tesco from 6th October (RRP £3.75).
