Mixed Meat Free Mini Sausages

Redwood Meat Free Cocktail Sausages

What fun, vegan mini sausages in three flavours from Redwood’s.   They are ready to eat cold, or you can warm them up.  In a Hot Dog style (which is my favourite),  a Lincolnshire Style and Pork Style flavours.   They are a perfect party food,  you can have them on cocktail sticks,  as a side,   or as a fun main course with whatever you fancy.  Kids will love these.   I had mine with some ketchup.  I can’t wait to try them out on non veggies to see what they think.  I think this is a really inventive way to encourage people to try some veggie food.  A great product.

Each 390gram pack is Vegan & Vegetarian Society Approved.  Meat Free, Dairy Free, priced at £2.99 sold on line and in health food shops.

I reviewed their normal size hotdogs earlier which are really good.

Small Cartons of Soya Milk

Provamel Organic Soya Milk

Its about time that soya milk was sold in smaller cartons.  It drives me a little crazy because I can never use the whole carton and I end up throwing almost half of it away.   They usually come in 1 litre cartons, but clever Provamel are doing a 500ml carton, half the size.  I am sure other suppliers are doing this but I have not come across it in the shops yet.  This one I found in Holland and Barrett.

Each 500ml carton is Vegan Society Approved, made in a nut free environment, dairy free and is a source of protein.  Per 250ml is 88kcal.

Hopefully other suppliers will follow suit as it is a shame to waste soya milk in these large cartons.

Clipper Organic Coffee Granules

Organic Coffee

From Clipper organic instant coffee.  This tastes pretty good.  The coffee has a nice aromatic flavour and is a good organic instant coffee.

I like coffee with some dark chocolate or a lovely piece of vegan cake. To make you just add one or two tea spoons of coffee to a mug and add hot water and stir.  I like to use half warm soya milk and half hot  water,  this makes it a creamy coffee.  Mostly I just have it black for speed.  Instant coffee is great when you are making vegan cakes I like to use it in the frosting.

Each 100gram jar is suitable for vegans as the only ingredient is coffee. Organic and Fair Trade, the jar is made from recycled glass.

I am more of a tea fan personally.  I do like the Clipper Organic Tea I reviewed earlier.
