Midweek Munchies

Time for some random things that I ate.

I bought this vegetarian soya chicken for a reason that I then didn't follow through with. I ended up using it as a chicken-style seitan sub in a stew I made. You can see it sliced here as well. It was pretty tasty in the stew, and browned up nicely, but had a definite soy flavour to it.





Nature's Kitchen is one of the in-house vegan brands at Coles. New things pop up every now and then, including this Five Grain Ciabatta Loaf with a buttery garlic and parsley spread. It comes from the fridge section, and you just pop it in the oven to heat up. It is really nice.







Here is a lovely snack plate I made for lunch one day, featuring Miyoko's Aged Black Ash. Also on the plate were some water crackers, some carrot and pepita crackers, grape tomatoes, celery, cucumber, beetroot hummus, and some golden kiwi fruit. The cheese is really nice, but that black ash gets over everything!



I found these vegan cookies sitting near the counter when I was at my local Drake's (formerly Drake's SupaIGA) a while ago. Of course I bought them. And they were really nice! I very rarely go to Drake's, but I will look out for them next time I am there.



This is a mug of delicious Mork's Dark Hot Chocolate, which is so rich and a little bitter and so good. I topped it with some mini pumpkin Dandies that I had got on super sale from The Green Edge. Huge mistake. Turns out I hate pumpkin Dandies. I fished these out of my hot chocolate, and my dad ate the rest of the bag.



Another little snacky lunch I made, using some fancy stuff. This Fine Cultures Smokey Cheddar from The Green Edge is coconut oil free and very nice. Also a little tub of beetroot and onion relish from Bruny Island Cheese Co. The relish tasted nice, but needs draining before you use it. I served these together with some leftover cream cheese on some water crackers.
