Sheese and other great vegan foods

[FishlessCake]

Can't believe I've never tried this before! It's lovely and doesn't taste dairy free (it's the creamy garlic and herb). What vegan foods do you all love

*DILL! Not doll. No idea what that tastes like. Like vegan cheese probably

(Plastic?)

Ooh what tuck box is it, I've been meaning to sign up for one (ideally one full of junk )

TheVegankind is a site where you can get box subscriptions each month or every three months. They have a lifestyle box (food) or a beauty box. The contents are a surprise and I think are really great value. You can also buy stuff on their website.

Booja Booja chocolate icecream! It's abit pricey, but the bed vegan ice cream I've ever had!

I've never tried any shop bought vegan icecream. A shop in Newquay (Wales) sells soya icecream. Plus I like the tesco cones but have been meaning to try the booja booja icecream.

I ordered a gluten-free selection box from vegantuckbox.co.uk

Seems a nice mix of healthy snacks and more junky ones. I tried some spicy tomato seedy cracker things last night which were nice. Very cute that given its V-day the box has heart shaped Belgian chocolates and heart shaped shortbread biscuits this month 💕

I think I will subscribe for a few months, especially whilst I'm still new to being vegan having things that you can grab like this makes things easier

On the ice cream front, I made some chocolate (well cacao) coconut milk ice cream in my ice cream maker this week - very quick easy and yum, although you can taste the coconut. Am going to experiment with other "milk" bases.

I've just looked at the vegan tuck box, I think I will sign up. I think I may be taking a trip up to Holland and Barrett later (I get very excited looking at the vegan food ). Going to get a 'beef' joint I think

fishlesscake I don't like 'normal' creme caramels so I have no idea whether they are nice though!

I've never tried a normal Creme caramel, but with me it's the same with most foods. I went vegetarian at 10 and the only meat we ate before then was fish or occasionally my nan would cook a chicken. So I've never tried proper sausages, burgers, bacon etc so no comparison.

Has anyone tried the quorn vegan fishless fingers? I'm hoping to find them in the big tesco.

I haven't tried them but I finally got a box from sainsburys, I have ordered a few times from Tesco and they keep being substituted for gluten free normal fish fingers (which we send back)

Let us know what they are like, I have high hopes because the vegan quorn pieces taste 'fishy'

The vegetarian ones a few years ago were nice, my meat/fish eating nephews preferred them to the real thing. I am hoping they are similar to those ones, but vegan now

Just a heads-up that we've moved this to Food at the OP's request.

Good move

Enjoying my tuck box! Yesterday I had some "Banana Joes" crisps - made of banana - BBQ flavour. Yummy and did not taste of banana. Which is good as despite really trying with smoothies and nice cream I still don't like banana unless it's really well hidden!

My nut milk bag arrived from amazon, so I'm looking forward to playing around with some homemade plant milks.

Does anyone mind if we talk about vegan recipes/homemade stuff in general as well as bought products on the thread?

Definitely talk about anything vegan . I'm lookin. Forward to hearin about the nut milk, please post pictures.
Are you all making pancakes at the end of the month?

We hadn't the fishless fingers for tea last night and thought they were really good

I'm hoping to get some on Tuesday, will make a parsley sauce to have them with

Sweetcorn fritters are lovely and so cheap to make. I'm shocked how well they cooked!

Ah,the vegan food porn I've been waiting for..
.
They look scrummy fishless did you gave them on their own,or with something else?

BTW,dd2 veggie,not vegan,was peering over my shoulder as I making appreciative noises and agrees we ""should get recipe and eat soon,nom nom"". Consider that she's very impressed

I had them with watercress and salsa they were really tasty. I'm going to rustle up some brownies in a bit, with some lotus spread stirred through

The brownies are in, I tweaked the recipe which is on bbc good food, I put 40g Cocoa instead of 2 spoons, also I did half sugar/golden syrup and stirred through chopped up chocolate and lotus spread.

This is the brownie hot out of the oven (yes it looks a mangled mess but not so much so in rl) shall let it cool then post a photo of it cut

This is the brownie all set (my daughter wanted a piece after her breakfast ). It is very squidgy and rich I could easily eat the whole thing
