Gregg’s New Vegan Sausage, Bean & CheeZe Melt
It’s been a short second since Greggs brought out the new Gregg’s Vegan Sausage, Bean & CheeZe melt. I was very excited when they brought this pastry out because I just loved the original version. I haven’t had it for years ever since going veggie. I love reviewing new vegan products, it’s nice to find new favourites like the Burger King Vegan Royale.
This is one of a few things now available in Gregg’s that are suitable for vegans. I love the variety coming out now! Just a shame they got rid of the vegan steak bake, I liked that.
My thoughts on the new Mr Lee’s Porridge & Congee Pots
Hello Everyone
I have changed the way I eat over the past year and now I think about what will be best for me and my family. I was kindly sent these pots of joy from ‘Mr Lee’s‘. So check out the rest of the post for ‘My thoughts on the new Mr Lee’s Porridge and Congee posts!
I have tried many varieties of porridge over the years ( which I love) but this was the first time I have tried a congee. Congee is basically like a savoury porridge. I sure was excited to try it. All of the flavours I tried here are vegan/vegetarian friendly.

Trying out Topolabamba in Glasgow, UK
Hello Everyone!
I enjoy going out for meals in restaurants but my favourite time of the year to go is on my birthday! I have been meaning to visit Tompolabamba in Glasgow for a fair number of years now but just never got round to it, especially with the Lockdown. Finally, now I have been with my family ‘ Trying out Topolabamba in Glasgow, UK. I can share my review with you now guys.
Mexican food has been a favourite of mine ever since I went to Mexico on vacation when I was 15 with my mum and sister. I have positive memories for sure including seeing Teotihuacan. In Mexico city the food was extraordinary; my tastes buds were bursting with flavours I have never had before!
My September Workout Playlist #1
Hello Everyone!
I just began month 13 of my fitness journey and being honest with you guys, I am still learning so much about fitness, food and life knowledge in general. I have learnt so much about food and also got myself more gym confident since joining the gym again at the start of the month. Music is a big part of my fitness journey so I have decided to do a series of posts with my favourite songs of the month and put them in a ‘workout playlist‘.

School Dinner Cake Recipe | Vegan
Growing up I had so many favourite foods including pizza fingers, bursting bugs and cakes just like this ‘ School Dinner Cake Recipe‘. Many of the foods aren’t here anymore but I suppose it’s fun to make things ourselves. The first up was this delicious cake which turned out delicious with some warm Alpro custard!
I can remember being at primary school having my lunch and occasionally they would be a cake served with custard, it made me so excited that I would rush through my lunch to get to my dessert, it was memories I will cherish.
For this recipe, I was wondering what to use instead of eggs and dairy and after contemplating what to use I tried something I have never tried before or together for that matter; whisked aquafaba and oat milk.
This recipe was really fun to make with my kids, they helped me organise the ingredients and mix up the cake mix and also decorate the cake at the end, yes it can be messy making but that’s part of the fun baking, right? So this cake is wonderful to make yourself, with a partner or with family and friends. The toppings are versatile so you can use whatever toppings you love, sprinkles are a must for me.
I had this cake with my family and everyone enjoyed it including
