Sunday Roast Ideas For Veganuary

-

By McDonald, T.  |  Date 3rd of January 2022

If you are planning to join in with veganuary, you will want to plan ahead.  Sunday roast dinners have always been spectacular, so the vegan alternative needs to be a winner.  Here are a few options to choose from including both mock meats and dinners without.

Mock Meats

Mock meats can take many forms, but all serve the purpose of replacing meat.  There are chicken, beef and lamb alternatives and they come in different shapes and sizes.

No Beef Wellington

This is the kind of Sunday dinner that dreams are made of!  Good enough for any occasion including Christmas and New Year dinners. It is a mock meat covered in a thick mushroom sauce, which in turn is covered in a light flaky pastry.  This one taste great hot or cold the next day.

Vegan Roast

Although this is not really the time of year for this type of dinner, it does make a good meal if you are looking for something a little bit different for one of your veganuary Sunday dinners.  Is very tasty and light on calories. 

Hunter's Cabbage

This is a tasty dinner that if you serve it with roast potatoes and vegetable will sit well on any Sunday dinner table. Nice big chunk of cabbage topped with facon vegan BBQ sauce and vegan cheese alternative.  The vegan cheese melts into the sauce and covers the facon and cabbage, making for a taste extravaganza!

No Mock Meats

If you don't like the texture of mock meats or just want something different, these vegan classics will keep your taste buds excited. 

Eastern Style Roast Vegetable Dinner (Vegan)

This has greatness in every bite!  Roasted vegetables are always good fun and the gravy on this dinner is amazing.  Simple and tasty.

Nut Roast

A nut roast has been around for as long as I can remember.  Although it is a safe bet for a Sunday dinner, it obviously contains nuts, which might not agree with some people or even be suitable.  Provided that people don't have a nut allergy, this is an easy and tasty meal. 


I hope you try out some of these dinners.  Let me know what you think and please like, share and subscribe.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 11th of December 2023   This is something I have heard of, but never tried before.  Usually, we have traditional Christmas cake in my house, but last year I wanted to try something different and this was it.  Rest assured, I will be having it again this year too! At first, it seems like a lot of effort, but you will soon see that it is straight forward to make and definitely worth it.  However, it will need proofing and the dried fruit will need soaking, which will all take time, so plan ahead.  Notes I used French Brandy Marzipan and so used brandy to flavour the raisins and cranberries. I used almond milk. A good tip is to dust the soaked fruit with a little flour before adding the dough. You have 3 options with the marzipan:  Roll it out  Chop it up Have a thick bar of it running through the centre I soaked the dried fruit in brandy, but you can make it without the alcohol is you wish or use rum instead. I used a silicon baking sheet to save on the

Rum And Raisin Loaf

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 27th of November 2023   Whatever the occasions, this is a great treat to be had.  The rum soaks into the raisins and results in a perfect infusion of flavours. The rum adds flavour to the raisins while the raisins add sweetness to the run.  This beautiful bread as a great bready texture, yet is fruity and warming to the soul. Although it doesn't need it, you can choose to dust it with icing sugar.

No yeast, so no proofing it is ready so fast and bakes in 45 minutes. The result is a sweet tasting cake that you can cut into slices and eat like bread. Notes Don't beat the batter or it will turn out tough after baking.   If you use Green Ginger Wine, be sure it is vegan.     Ingredients  Dry  300 g of self-raising flour 120 g of dark brown sugar 2 tsp of ground ginger   5 crystallised ginger cut into pieces 30 g of grated fresh ginger 1 tsp of ground cloves 1 tsp of mixed spice 1/4 tsp of salt 1 tsp of baking powder Wet 40 ml of vegetable oil  240 ml of water  150 g (about 4 tbsp) of plan or vanilla vegan yoghurt 50 ml of ginger wine 2 tbsp of dark syrup   Method Add all the dry ingredients to a
