Calling all Bloomington foodies with a taste for fresh, local, and plant-based cuisine! Planted Bloomington, the popular food truck known for its creative and delicious vegan dishes, has unveiled some exciting new additions to their seasonal menu.
Since opening in September 2023, Planted Bloomington has won hearts (and satisfied appetites) with their unique take on plant-based comfort food. Their signature "flats" - open-faced sandwiches on locally sourced bread - have been a particular crowd-pleaser. But Planted isn't afraid to branch out, offering an array of skewers, refreshing desserts, and other savory and sweet creations, all crafted with a focus on sustainability and local ingredients.
Now, as the seasons shift, Planted is blooming with new flavors. Here's a sneak peek at what you can expect:
- For the Savory Palate: Look out for exciting new flat options that celebrate the bounty of the spring harvest. Imagine fresh asparagus spears drizzled with a zesty lemon vinaigrette and topped with crispy tempeh crumbles on a bed of creamy cashew cheese.
- Skewer Surprise: Planted's popular skewers are getting a seasonal makeover too. Think succulent grilled oyster mushrooms paired with roasted vegetables and a smoky chipotle aioli, or marinated tofu kebabs with pineapple chunks and a sweet and spicy peanut sauce.
Planty of Sweet Treats: Planted isn't forgetting about dessert lovers! Their already enticing selection of coconut-based ice cream might see some new spring flavors like vibrant strawberry sorbet or a refreshing lavender honey gelato.
Beyond the Food: Planted Bloomington's commitment to sustainability extends beyond their plant-based menu. They actively source ingredients from local farmers and producers, minimizing their environmental footprint. They also encourage eco-conscious dining by offering a discount on drinks for customers who bring their own reusable cups.
