I get asked this question a lot, so here's a photo-record, quick snaps of the every-day vegan meals and treats I've eaten in the past month or so...
1. Jus' Rol Croissant - Yummy! Can you imagine not eating any kind of breakfast, french-y pastry for 7 years (7 years is the length of time that I've been vegan for). And the discovering these cook at home croissants. You would be very happy. And so am I.
2. Morrisons Free From Orange Choccy Bar. This is amazing! It tastes just like dairy chocolate.
3. Jus' Rol Pain Au Chocolat. Same story as the Croissants. Nom nom nom nom.

4. Vegetable fajitas, home made flat breads, Yum.
5. Curry Chickpeas. I eat this for my lunch quite often, it's really easy to make and full of protein and nutrients. Fry some chickpeas in a pan with a little curry powder for a couple of minutes, add some sunflower and pumpkin seeds until they're toasted. Mix in some sesame seeds and a sprinkle of salt at the end. Serve with couscous. Also good for taking in your lunchbox.
6. Vegan millionaires shortbread, from Morrisons. This one tastes weirdly coconutty, not quite like the real thing, but still eatable.
7. I have an ice-cream maker, this is my first attempt, mint choc-chip, made with coconut milk. It's not quite right yet!
8. Vegan pancakes with lemon and sugar.

hello!
ReplyDeletei've just started getting the vegan kind box - http://www.thevegankind.com/ you subscribe and get a bunch of vegan treats!! it's really good.x i love chickpeas too....
I've seen those vegan boxes about quite a lot in various places, they seem like an exciting thing to get through the post!
DeleteOoooh chickpeas are my favourite - some lovely looking food there. I signed up to the national vegetarian week challenge a couple of weeks ago but couldn't wait to get started to did so right there and then. After being a non-veggie for a year I am finding it really easy to get back into and I am enjoying my food again. I am inspired by you being a vegan.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your veggie challenge Lorna! Glad to hear you're enjoying the food :)
DeleteNot sure if my comment got posted: I love chickpeas too! Do you soak and sprout them first or just fry dry ones (or from a can)? Other food looks yummy too! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Layla :) I just used canned chickpeas, it's easy peasy!
DeleteThank you for giving us a glimpse into your vegan bites. Isn't it amazing how many JustRol products are vegan. I've recently made some savoury croissants with vegan cheese using the product, pretty good. Hope to share today.
ReplyDeleteOooh I like the idea of savoury croissants, I will have to investigate!
