All plants/ Vegananuary

[Houseandhome]

Has anyone ordered from all plants before? Was thinking of going Vegan for Jan and this popped up as an ad?!

I tried their meals but wasn’t impressed with the taste or texture. Granted it was a couple of years ago.

After trying many boxes, I like our weekly Gousto box best. One orders four meals per week in advance from a selection of 5 or 6 great plant-based recipes (including often a healthy option devised by Joe Wicks!). They have reduced the amount of plastic waste that you end up with. My DDs love following their step-by-step photo recipe cards - easy as everything is clearly marked and portioned.

In addition I get a biweekly Riverford medium fruit and veg box for four of us (me and DD2 vegans, DD1 vegetarian and DH happy occasional vegan).

I am doing a veganised Whole30 from 1 January. It cuts out all processed, packaged and prepared food to eliminate sugar and gluten especially. It is easy to be a lazy vegan with all the lovely supermarket stuff that’s available these days so I need a proper reset (and will miss wine most).

Apologies for the very long reply! In short, follow easy recipes with good ingredients where you can control what goes into it.
