Another hectic week thanks to the British bank Holiday, so I had to grab myself a lunch in between client meetings. I am currently trying to focus on more whole food recipes, and to eat less processed goods, so I thought this BOL pot would be better for me than a Pot Noodle. I was … Continue reading BOL spanish bean and Veg Paella

Swizzels Puds sweets
I used to love Maoam sweets. Now of course they are not vegan friendly, so I have simply done without them over the years. At first I missed the candy, but there are so ,many candy options now I haven't really thought about them for some time. And then I saw this packet of Swizzels … Continue reading Swizzels Puds sweets
Gregg’s vegan sausage, beans and cheese bake
Gregg's coming in again with their vegan goodies! I honestly don't know how I would cope some days without Gregg's. Those days when work is super hectic, and your 'healthy' meal just doesn't feel like it will be enough to fuel you and you just want something greasy. Good ol' Gregg's coming in hard! I … Continue reading Gregg’s vegan sausage, beans and cheese bake
Little Moons mochi ice cream: mango and passionfruit
I have never had mochi before, but I have seen everyone online raving about how great these little ice cream mochi balls are. Now I know that mochi is usually made from rice, and is mixed with sugar, fruit or other sweet things to make little dessert balls. They are originally from Japan and in … Continue reading Little Moons mochi ice cream: mango and passionfruit
M&S Raspberry and almond butter bar
Healthy snacks (that isn't just plain fruit and/or veg) seem to be so hard to get right. Either they are full of sugar - so actually no good for you at all - or taste like nothing. I wonder if one day, someone somewhere will be able to make a good vegan snack bar. That … Continue reading M&S Raspberry and almond butter bar
Fuel 10k chunky chocolate protein granola
As with most healthy food, it seems that the only options are usually pretty disappointing. Granola is meant to be a great start for the day with slow released carbs to keep your energy levels up until lunch time. Downside is that most options contain honey, as without something sweet it is like chewing cardboard. … Continue reading Fuel 10k chunky chocolate protein granola
Violife coco spread
One of the biggest issues for a new vegan is the never ending hunt for vegan nutella. It obviously goes without saying that nutella is one of the best inventions of the world, yet unfortunately a vegan version is yet to be made. That being said, I am always on the look out for a … Continue reading Violife coco spread
In the Mood Cafe: Passionfruit cake
This little cafe is located around the corner from where I work, and yet every time I go past it, it is either absolutely rammed busy or closed. They are a completely vegan cafe, serving cakes, drinks and various hot meals which I believe are changed seasonally. When I visited they had some curry dishes … Continue reading In the Mood Cafe: Passionfruit cake
Plant Kitchen marshmallows
I have heard good things about these but my local store never seemed to ever stock these. So naturally when I finally found a packet I nearly knocked over three old ladies to grab them first. Not even sorry. These are exactly how I remember marshmallows being: soft and light and fluffy, while also being … Continue reading Plant Kitchen marshmallows
Wicked Garlic and Herb kebabs
Wicked kitchen are slowly going up in my estimations. Normally the only food they had on offer were spiced to within an inch of their life, so all you could taste in any meal was chilli. But this range - the options for kebabs - prove that you do not need a ton of spicy … Continue reading Wicked Garlic and Herb kebabs
