Vegan & Vegetarian and all those in between...

Mel_Mel_ Posts: 574 Incredible Poster
Just wanted to kind of make a thread to discuss some of our favourite things to cook/make if you're vegan/vegetarian and anything else in between?

Mine are:
Chickpea/gram flour tofu
Pasta with pesto!
sweet potato and mushroom polenta-its lovely its from the cookbook the green roasting tin...
Chickpea curry
and I've had fun spiralizing courgette to make different things with it lol.
Also smoothies with flax seeds and chia seeds for mornings...

Post your favourite things if you want too... hopefully this is allowed

    heya!
    i really love sort of "sushi" bowls, like rice, avocado, edemame (frozen from tescos, u just steam them!) and u can add quorn pieces, egg, tofu, or anything really! quick and easy :)
    or soup noodles, (add a bit of ginger to the broth, its amaze)  I like mine w mushrooms, beansprouts, spinach, and again u can add eg but ofc that's not vegan 😭
    also spicy bean burgers hehe

    Have you seen the vegan Goodfella's jackfruit pizza. It's so yummy! Also yes to veganism! 

    I think my fave reciepes largely come from the Bosh quick means, like their ramen and Sticky Shiitake dish.

    My housemates eat the vegan goodfellas jackfruit pizza all the time! 
    They don't have it in Asda though! It smells yummy! Might ask them to buy me one

    Yeah the vegan jackfruit stuffed crust is pizza is dreamy! 
    For different meals I like different things, e.g.
    - Breakfast = overnight oats, including granola (GF) muesli (GF), oats, pumpkin seeds, peanut butter, banana, cashew nuts, thawed frozen berries and oat milk
    - Lunch = houmous, falafel, cucumber, tomatoes, spinach, sun-dried tomato, avocado, olives and maybe a drizzle of balsam vinegar :) 
    - Dinner = There are loads of good recipes that you can turn vegan at this link: https://www.feastingathome.com/15-cozy-fall-dinners-vegetarian

    Love this thread so let's keep it going! 

    P.s. I also love the Fry's vegan chicken nuggets, they're so yummy 😍

  • coc0maccoc0mac Posts: 1,054 Wise Owl
    I love nomo @GreenTea! A lil bit expensive for the size of them but good, reminds me a bit of galaxy chocolate 
  • mags98mags98 Posts: 287 The Mix Regular
    I struggle finding good vegan chocolate bars that aren't crazily priced, any recommendations? 
  • GreenTeaGreenTea Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Most ones I find are so expensive.
