Plant Kitchen chorizo puppies

Restrictions in the UK are now starting to ease, I decided to venture out into the normal world and go to M&S. My local store has been open throughout the lockdown but as it is located in the middle of the town centre, I haven't been brave enough to venture into town until this weekend. … Continue reading Plant Kitchen chorizo puppies →

No Bull cottage pie

Iceland's vegan range was another welcome addition to the supermarkets. Their entire collection includes No Chick nuggets, No Bull burgers and mince, and No Duck spring rolls, although they are bringing out new additions to their collection each season it would seem. With the UK still in lockdown, my partner and I have been trying … Continue reading No Bull cottage pie →

Ben and Jerry’s Vegan: Cookies on Cookie Dough

One of the things that I have missed since turning vegan has been Ben and Jerry's. Do not get me wrong, the vegan ice cream out there is really good but they are not the most exciting: You usually just have vanilla, or chocolate, or various types of sorbet. One of my favourite things in … Continue reading Ben and Jerry’s Vegan: Cookies on Cookie Dough →

Thank you Tesco...you have done the right thing. UPDATE: Tesco have now since changed the recipe and have added milk powder to … Continue reading Tesco Orange Dark Chocolate bar →

Plant Kitchen No Duck Spring Rolls

At this point I am fairly certain that I have eaten all of the Plant Kitchen items available from M&S. Although once lock-down is lifted, my hope is that a whole new range will come in that I may test out! Now I used to love duck spring rolls when I was younger and when … Continue reading Plant Kitchen No Duck Spring Rolls →

Home Made Crispy Chips

With more time in lock down, my partner has finally perfected the home made chips! This is his fool proof way to get lovely crispy chips at home using just potatoes. This recipe makes a generous helping for two people, so just amend it as needed if you want more or less going forward. Ingredients: … Continue reading Home Made Crispy Chips →

Linda McCartney country pies

Linda McCartney is one of the most well-known vegan figures and her food range was one of the most successful. The brand was created in 1991 and is one of the most readily available vegan and vegetarian brands around. Linda McCartney foods offer all sorts of vegan alternatives for foods and I would need an … Continue reading Linda McCartney country pies →

Plant Chef Tomato and Basil soup

Tesco are really hitting the mark with their Plant Chef range! Following on from my previous tests of the sweet potato and coconut soup, I decided to give the basic tomato soup a try. In my experience almost all plain tomato soups either contain milk (thanks Heinz!) and the vegan alternatives always end up adding … Continue reading Plant Chef Tomato and Basil soup →

Blueberry Smoothie

Spring has finally sprung and with that blueberries are now in season here in the UK! I managed to pick up a huge pallet of them from my local shops for £2 and have perfected the blueberry smoothie. I have been using mostly frozen fruit for these too, as I find it makes it very … Continue reading Blueberry Smoothie →
