We’ve partnered with the wonderful Veganuary to bring you a brand new 10-week challenge, designed to help you introduce delicious new vegan recipes to your repertoire, charm friends, family and colleagues with your plant-based culinary skills and provide a little inspiration for you to consider Veganuary if you feel like building on your Meat Free Mondays and going meat free for January!
Over the course of the next 10 weeks, we will be providing two amazing recipes each week for you to try – it’s a way of showcasing great food and highlighting how exciting and tasty plant-based food really is!
Recipes are provided from our very own Meat Free Monday Cookbook, published by Kyle Books, and from Wicked Healthy (the brainchild of brothers Derek and Chad Sarno) for Veganuary.
It’s week 1 … and we’re kicking off the challenge with two show stopping recipes:
A creamy Wicked Serious Carbonara, packed full of creamy goodness and guaranteed to taste amazing

Carbonara, an Italian classic, is now a plant-forward masterpiece. We’re banging it out with cashews for creaminess, mushrooms for meatiness and pasta because, well … pasta! It serves 4-6 people and is ready within 60-90 minutes.

And next up we have …
A beautifully aromatic Thai Vegetable Curry, easy to make with amazing flavours – a real taste of South-East Asia
In just a few decades, Thai food has grown from relative obscurity into one of the most popular cuisines on Earth. This vegetable curry has many of its classic tastes and textures. It serves 4 people and is ready within 30-45 minutes.
