BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Jan. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- This Valentine's Day, MorningStar Farms® is partnering with the queen of naughty plant-based dishes, Pinky Cole of Atlanta's Slutty Vegan and Bar Vegan, to share delicious and decadent recipes that take the stress - and the meat - out of Valentine's Day and #MakeItEasy to eat plant based. The Valentine's Day menu consists of two vegan recipes – The Irresistible Chick and The Sausage Sweetie – that couples can cook on their own with minimal hassle using MorningStar Farms® products and accessible ingredients.

The vegan Irresistible Chick is the perfect option for your tender lover, featuring crispy Incogmeato® Chik'n Tenders, tangy Kimchi and sweet Teriyaki mayo, all nestled on a slider bun. The Sausage Sweetie is for those who prefer a breakfast-in-bed option – or even breakfast for dinner - featuring MorningStar Farms® Veggie Original Sausage Patties and vegan eggs, sprinkled with Cole's notorious Slut Dust seasoning, topped with warm vegan cheese and sandwiched between warm Hawaiian bread. Details for the recipes will be shared on MorningStar Farms® Instagram and Facebook, as well as the MorningStar Farms® website, www.MorningStarFarms.com.

"I'm so excited to share the love this Valentine's Day with the perfect low-key menu to make at home with your special someone, whether they're a plant-based eating virgin like my guy, or a seasoned pro like me," said Cole. "I'm a fan of the Incogmeato® Chik'n Tenders and MorningStar Farms® Veggie Original Sausage Patties on their own, and love how versatile the food is, which lets me jazz it up and spin them into something new and naughty, like we did here."

"At MorningStar Farms®, we make it easy to incorporate plant-based eating into everyday life," said Heidi Ray, Marketing Director, Plant-Based Protein Category of Kellogg Company. "We're proud to partner again with Pinky Cole to give couples everywhere delicious and creative recipes they can make and enjoy together this Valentine's Day."
