plant based
From the garden
Plant based describes food or diets that emphasize or consist entirely of ingredients derived from plants rather than animals—vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, nuts.
The term gained currency as a softer alternative to vegan, suggesting health-consciousness without the ethical stance: I've been trying to eat more plant based.
Often hyphenated when used as an adjective before a noun: a plant-based burger.
