Started in a tiny New York City kitchen to help a family eat more plant protein and fiber on the go, North River Dry Goods makes roasted, seasoned snacks from yellow split peas. Its Crunchy Yellow Peas deliver 9 grams each of plant protein and dietary fiber per bag, with the line certified gluten-free, Non-GMO Project Verified, and vegan. The company’s snacks are sold through stores in the Greater New York City area, across the Northeast, and in Chicago.

• Scott's Protein BallsAfter Lori Levine’s breast cancer treatment prompted a search for better everyday snacks, she and her husband Scott began making plant-based protein balls in their kitchen and launched Scott’s Protein Balls in 2020. The company produces refrigerated, clean-ingredient snacks with recognizable ingredients, including nut-free options and kosher-certified flavors, for convenient energy without preservatives or artificial colors. One percent of every sale supports the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.FARMINGDALE, NY
• Full of Beans KitchenBorn from founder Narell Vasquez’s search for a better bean-based breakfast, Full of Beans Kitchen makes pancake and waffle mix powered by whole fava beans. Vasquez, who grew up eating fava beans in Ecuador, spent two years developing a formulation that delivers the familiar taste and texture of traditional pancakes while providing 15 grams of natural protein per serving. Based in New York City, the company draws on Blue Zone food traditions to make a convenient, gluten-free breakfast from a legume more often found in savory dishes.New York, NY
