Any good vegan Christmas food in the supermarkets?

[IAm16StoneHalloween2024]

I avoid a lot of stuff because I'm not that dedicated to finding it tbh. But what am I missing out on? I'm good for Christmas pudding and mince pies, but is there anything else you would recommend?

I am close ish to Tesco, Morrisons, ASDA, Sainsbury's, a small Waitrose and the Co-op.

I noticed that my Tesco Extra has a freezer with Christmas foods and some were from the Plant Based range. I did not check them as I am not yet in the Christmas mood

Oh so that’s a good start, thanks. I’ll try to go and have a look.

I am starting to be in the Christmas mood, but am still eating freezer stuff to create more space.

Should have added I have access to an Aldi and Lidl too.

Look out for the Aldi Christmas food catalogue if you can get one. There's a whole double page spread on vegan nibbles and I've a few of them marked for our December feasting: Rainbow vegetable parcels, No-gammon joint, potato rostis (fancy ones), and the let's party vegan selection are all on my to-get list.

Waitrose do some good seasonal vegan mushroom Wellingtons. DS1 always has these for Christmas Day and loves them.

Lebkuchen from Aldi are great.

I got vegan panettone from Waitrose yesterday

It feels like all the major supermarkets hate vegans this year!

I'm looking for a good dessert if anyone can recommend one - nothing that tastes like Christmas (mince pies, christmas pud etc 🤢) and no alcohol.

We have started putting in some serious market research into our Christmas main and I think the Aldi no-beef Wellington has it this year!

The sainsburys plant pioneers bubble and squeak melts also made a tasty mid-week meal, would buy those again.

Aldi have a brilliant vegan selection this year and I'm looking forward to Asda's breaded Brie wedges.
Tesco's gingerbread dough is accidentally vegan.

Got some of the Brie wedges in the freezer, also some this isn’t roasts as I liked that last year.

Tesco have a delicious vegan nut roast with chestnuts this year! Comes with a sachet of lovely vegan gravy too
