Artisan Grains is a quality brand of nut roast mixes, which you can find most health stores and good delis. People laugh about nut roasts but (as long as you’re not allergic to nuts) they are actually a great way of getting protein, for a Sunday roast.
Keep nuts away from young children and pets. Before cooking, read up on food safety for people and pets.
You can recycle soft plastic packaging at supermarket bag bins, if your council does not collect.
These nut roasts are free from palm oil, developed by a foodie who was not impressed by what he found in shops. They are also super-easy to use, as you use the tray to bake them in. Just pour the mix into the tray, add water and leave it to thicken up. Then bake and serve with potatoes and veggies, with vegan gravy. You can then recycle the baking tray.
They do take a while to cook, so cook alongside other things (like an apple crumble for pudding or whatever). Choose from three flavours:
- Country Vegetable and Cashew
- Mediterranean Sun-dried Tomato
- Cashew Nut and Cranberry
You can also use the mix to make ‘meatballs’ or homemade dippers. Or shape them into burgers and cook, then serve in a bun with salad and vegan mayo, with chips on the side.
