The best thing about winter is the comfort food. Here in England, while it is technically considered spring now, it is still freezing cold and we are currently getting weather warnings for snow and sleet in the coming weeks. So I don't think we are out of winter just yet. Which means it is still … Continue reading Quick and easy pizza recipe

Baxters jackfruit and 3 bean soup
It is at that funny time of year here in England where the weather cannot decide if it will be warm or cold. The temperatures are currently ranging from -1 to 15 (Celsius), sometimes multiple times in one day. I am sure there is some sort of debate to be had about the effects of … Continue reading Baxters jackfruit and 3 bean soup
Squeaky Beam pastrami
As promised, I am slowly making my way through the entire Squeaky Bean product line. So far, they have been consistently good. Their products are now becoming a stable part of our weekly food shop as their 'deli meats' are great for sandwiches during the week. Of course, the macros of the products are some … Continue reading Squeaky Beam pastrami
Gregg’s Southern Fried Chicken baguette
Just before Christmas it appeared that Gregg's had removed their ham and cheese melt baguette for reasons that I still have not been able to work out. I, personally, really loved being able to buy just a basic ham and cheese sandwich from a shop on the high street that was tasty and affordable. Not … Continue reading Gregg’s Southern Fried Chicken baguette
Which e-numbers are vegan?
As with all things vegan, there is always something new to learn. Now if you are following a plant based diet then it is likely that you haven't come across e-numbers before. I won't get into a debate (not now anyway) about whether e-numbers are good or bad for you, but I am someone who … Continue reading Which e-numbers are vegan?
Squeaky Bean steak pieces
Following on from my previous Squeaky Bean review, I am now slowly working my way through their entire product range. It seems all of their products are very high in protein, so this works wonderfully for myself who is trying to improve my macro intake to improve my performance at the gym. I was very … Continue reading Squeaky Bean steak pieces
Vivera plant drumsticks
As mentioned before I am currently working on achieving a number of my fitness goals. One big component of that is eating my macros, and at the stage I am at I am actually having to increase my protein intake so I can build that lean muscle. I am therefore constantly on the lookout for … Continue reading Vivera plant drumsticks
Squeaky Beam kick of tikka chicken pieces
The past few months I have been trying to focus more on my health and fitness. I'm running more and actually getting some decent numbers when it comes to my weight lifting. But a massive part of the fitness journey comes from the diet. You can run ultramarathons every weekend but if you eat like … Continue reading Squeaky Beam kick of tikka chicken pieces
Krispy Kreme vegan original glaze
So until very recently (i.e the beginning of this year) you could only order the vegan original glazed doughnuts online and could only order them as a 12 pack. Now...as much as I could, would and wanted to order a 12 pack of vegan doughnuts to try them, I could not justify that. I am … Continue reading Krispy Kreme vegan original glaze
Honest Burgers vegan teriyaki burger
I hate to admit it but this year it seems the Veganuary offerings are lacking. I haven't actually seen many new options being advertised (at least not near where I live) and the few offers I have seen have been shockingly bad. Shout out in particular to Mcdonald's, who think that they can add a … Continue reading Honest Burgers vegan teriyaki burger
