Getting prepared to go vegan for a month, and we're starting to think about the details. Let's start with a few basics -
Bread - all that enticing stuff at the bakery counter, and not a lot in the way of labelling. It sounds a faff to ask the bakery staff what's in the bread, so we'll have to ask Veganuary for some guidance here. Our other options are buying prewrapped sliced bread, after checking the label carefully first of course, or making our own! Now that's an idea....I had a month's baking frenzy a couple of years ago and it could be a good time to get the old Kenwood out.
Cakes and doughnuts - ditto the above, so we could be doing even more baking. I'm starting to see a bit of a spinoff here......
Grace has been looking up some recipes and many of them seem to have an Indian theme. I think we're going to be quite busy in the kitchen next month, and had better stock up on some essentials.
Spreads - shouldn't be a problem as olive-based spreads are available.
Jam, Marmalade, these'll be okay won't they?
Biscuits - I don't expect there'll be many vegan types in the supermarkets but will look into this. Homemade biccies definitely an option again. It's good that we're going to be doing this in January, as it's a quieter time for us workwise.
