...and the spangram was VEGANPROTEINS.

“Power plants”
Hi Strands fans. Today's puzzle was a tough one, even for someone flexitarian cohabiting with a vegetarian like me!
I had to use a clue to get started, which revealed NUTS in the middle of the grid. I then realized that "Power plants" wasn't about flowers, but plant-based diets.
When I saw the word "proteins" in the middle of the grid, I realized it was part of the spangram and was able to expand it to read VEGANPROTEINS to split the board in two.
I found a couple of meat alternatives first: TEMPEH was in the top-left corner, with SEITAN below it. That left YEAST in the bottom left to finish that half of the board.
TOFU was in the bottom-right corner, and that just left BEANS and SEEDS above it to complete the puzzle.
