Organic Roasted Vegetables with Sticky BBQ Tempeh.

Organic Roasted Vegetables with Sticky BBQ Tempeh.

@organiboxuk kindly sent me a box of gorgeous organic fruits & vegetables. I roasted the onion, red pepper, garlic, sweet potato & courgette in a little olive oil & pink salt.

20% off your first box using code VEGANUARY until the end of the month.

I added high protein tempeh & half a seeded sourdough baguette on the side.

Tempeh & sourdough are fermented foods which are great for gut health.

'Chicken' & 'Bacon' Carbonara.

A creamy, rich pasta dish made with cream, nutritional yeast & English mustard.

It was back into the office today after a few weeks of working from home. I was in the gym at 6am then off to Tonbridge for work. I wasn't home until 6pm so made this carbonara which can be ready in 20 minutes.

Recipe on my website & YouTube channel.

Made with wholewheat spaghetti.

Dark rye sourdough toast & houmous.

Chicken - Taste & Glory
Bacon - This Isn't

Sausage & Mixed Beans in tomato sauce with Wholegr

Sausage & Mixed Beans in tomato sauce with Wholegrain Rice.

I feel like my diet hasn't been as healthy as I want recently so I'm having a healthier dinner.

A simple meal made with fried onion, garlic, Quorn sausages, a tin of mixed beans, chopped tomatoes, salt, pepper & oregano.

A whopping 52g of plant protein in this meal!

I'm very impressed with the sausages, much better than the vegetarian ones, which I've not had for 6 years.

Dinner @purezza Hove.

👈Swipe left for pics 📸

This evening I went along to Purezza (award winning plant-based pizzas) with a group of lovely Brighton food bloggers.

I first tried Purezza about 5 years ago, not long after I'd gone vegan & was blown away at how good their food is. Everyone I've taken there (inc non-vegans) has loved their menu.

I had The One with The Pesto Pizza with a wholgrain sourdough base. (Homemade pesto base, with mozzarella, roasted courgettes, semi-dried tomatoes & parmesan.)

Cheesy Garlic Dough Balls.

New York Cheesecake.

Without a doubt one of the best pizzas I've had & the cheese is spot on!

If you're in Brighton, Hove, Bristol or Manchester go check them out.

Thank you @brightonfoodiescommunity

Another day another burger. I never would have tho

Another day another burger. I never would have thought 6 years ago when I went vegan that I'd struggle to keep up with the amount of burgers available.

Tonight's dinner is 2 @vegetarianbutcher "Patty on the Back" premium burgers. In a toasted wholemeal muffin with cheese & piccalilli.

Skins on Wedges & reduced sugar ketchup.

Verdict = the burgers are VERY meaty & taste great. Would probably fool a non-vegan. I'd definitely buy them again.

I love swapping the bun for a wholemeal version as it's much healthier.

Have a wonderful week!

Cheese - Asda
Piccalilli - @calderskitchen

Tuno & Sweetcorn Pasta Bake topped with Smoked Cheddar.

Pasta bakes are so easy & taste incredible! Instead of baking everything in the oven, which takes twice as long. I cook it then finish it off for a few minutes in the oven.

Using Tuno (vegan tuna) with onion, garlic, sweetcorn & vegetable pasta sauce stired in.

I've used a mix of wholemeal fusilli & chickpea pasta. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce, top with cheese & bake for 5 minutes.

Wholemeal sourdough topped with houmous on the side.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Pasta - Explore Cuisine

Baked Cauliflower & 'Chick'n Korma with Wholemeal

Baked Cauliflower & 'Chick'n Korma with Wholemeal Rice, Garlic & Coriander Naan & Onion Bhaji.

I love the colour of the Korma. I used loads of anti inflammatory turmeric that's made it the golden colour.

Using @futurefarm chick'n chunks, red onion, baked cauliflower, garlic, Korma paste & soya yoghurt.

Soya yoghurt is great in creamy curry's for flavour & is lower in fat than cream.

Korma Paste - Patak's
Rice - Aldi
Onion Bhaji - Aldi
Naan - Aldi
Yoghurt - Asda (unsweetened)

@yfood_eu sent me these delicious & convenient high protein meal replacement shakes to try.

They're so good I thought I'd do a main post about them.

10% DISCOUNT CODE AARON10

I live a very busy life getting up at 6am most mornings, walking the dogs then off to the gym. I have a full time job as well as doing my social media stuff.

When I'm short of time these drinks are handy to take to work or if I'm staying with family. A great way to top up your protein levels & high in vitamins & minerals.

Would you like to see more about my fitness in future posts?
