Veganuary: 10 Vegan & Low Waste Ingredients to Always Have on Hand
It’s always so much fun to share tips and ideas with others who are trying to follow – and enjoy – a vegan diet. Here are my top ten items that I always have in my kitchen!
I originally wrote this article for Borough 22 back in April 2019 and it's a great list for any one starting out on a vegan diet. I've tweaked it slightly since with some brand recommendations. All my choices are low waste too!
Borough 22 make the yummiest vegan and gluten free doughnuts that can be delivered to your door!
1. Nut butter
Needing no introduction, I live on this stuff. I put it on toast, a spoonful on porridge, in a smoothie or you can make a sweet sauce by heating up and adding either plant milk, coconut oil or maple syrup. It’s also great for homemade savoury sauces (see 3 below). I only buy nut butter from 100% nuts meaning there’s no palm oil or added sugars and you can generally find it in a glass jar (Pic's is my fave, available in Tesco), or a 1kg tub of Meridian (available in most supermarkets and health shops).
2. Chickpeas
Another super versatile essential. You can buy dried and soak overnight (see if you have a bulk store near you to buy zero waste). I always forget to soak them in advance so I buy them tinned. Not only can you add chickpeas into curries, stews and chilli, you can use them to make homemade plastic free hummus or dip (try blending a can of uncooked chickpeas with an avocado for a super quick dip) or a quick snack of dry roasted chickpeas. The Chickpea water can also be saved to make vegan meringues or chocolate mousse (see Bosh TV recipe).
3. Soy/Tamari sauce
My go-to sauce for adding flavour to a savoury dish. I mix with garlic, ginger, toasted sesame oil and sweet chilli for a basic stir-fry sauce (taste test to find the ratio you like!). I also use a dash for stews, chilli and its great for coating tofu and baking in the oven.
4. Tofu
It wouldn’t be a vegan list without mentioning tofu. In the supermarket you can generally find either silken tofu (which is better for sauces and desserts) or firm tofu. Firm tofu is really versatile however if you’re new to tofu it can take a while to become fond of it.
For a beginner, I cut the firm tofu into 1.5cm chunks, coat it cornflour and then fry in the pan with a decent amount of oil. You could also buy or make a marinade to add once the tofu is crispy. My favourite is a sticky sweet and sour sauce.
Another option is marinading the firm tofu overnight for ultimate flavour. I like either soy or a homemade barbecue sauce. Simply cook in the over for 30 minutes. I now love tofu so much that I also sometimes just cut into cubes and eat it raw from the packet.
My ultimate favourite is using tofu for breakfast. Either a scrambled tofu or slicing into 1cm blocks and re-creating an Egg McMuffin (see Bosh TV again!)
5. Oats
An absolute staple. I buy organic jumbo oats in paper from the supermarket. Use oats to make porridge, your own granola, flapjacks, add to smoothies and energy balls or blend up to a fine almost flour like consistency to make pancakes. I eat them almost every morning. You can also make your own oat milk at home with three simple ingredients (oats, water, salt and optional date).
6. Coconut milk (in a can)
Not only can it be used to make Indian and Thai curries, it’s great for baking too. Refrigerate to make cake frosting or whipped cream or give it a very good shake and add to your smoothies for a milkshake style thickness.
7. Tomatoes
Again not a cupboard essential but if there’s one fresh thing I like to see in the fridge it’s a whole load of tomatoes. You can make so many things from them and add them to so many dishes. Make your own sauce, salsa or pizza base. Whip up a simple salad or add them to stews and curries. I love balsamic roasted vine tomatoes on toast for a simple yet delicious brunch.
8. Nuts
We always have almonds and cashews in the house as they are great for snacking and either topping sweet or savoury dishes. Chopped nuts are great for salads and ground nuts can be used in baking. A hit of good fat and protein. You can even soak cashews overnight to help make the ultimate creamy dairy free sauce.
9. Nutritional Yeast
Something that will be a new ingredient to non-vegans in nutritional yeast. It has added Vitamin B12 which is the only vitamin we cannot reliably get from a plant-based diet. It looks like fish food but you can add it to a creamy pasta or risotto sauce, soup, in scrambled tofu or even a nut roast. It has a cheesy flavour however it can easily be added to a lot of dishes without anyone noticing.
10. Baked Beans
I have to mention the mighty baked beans, shop bought in a tin. Did you know baked beans on wholemeal toast is a complete protein meal? If you’re short of time these are a go to in our household and a must have with a big vegan fry up. You can try making your own smoky baked beans from scratch too!

Bonjour, je m’appelle Marcelo Paes Costa Junior et je suis originaire de Rio de Janeiro, au Brésil. Je voudrais témoigner publiquement d’un grand herboriste qui m’a aidé à guérir de ma maladie. J’ai eu le VIH/SIDA pendant plus de 5 ans et j’étais presque en fin de vie à cause de l’apparence de ma peau. Je n’ai qu’une idée en tête : abandonner, car la vie ne m’intéresse plus. Une nuit, ma sœur est venue me voir en me disant qu’elle avait trouvé sur Internet un médecin capable de guérir le VIH/SIDA. Je n’étais même pas intéressé car je n’y avais jamais cru. Elle m’a aidé pour tout ce que le médecin m’a demandé, a rempli le formulaire de traitement pour moi et a même utilisé son propre argent pour m’acheter le médicament. Au cours d’une semaine d’utilisation du médicament, j’ai commencé à devenir plus fort, mon sang a recommencé à couler normalement. 4 à 5 jours plus tard, j’ai commencé à prendre du poids, avant la 3e semaine, mon corps a commencé à se développer, ma peau a commencé à pousser. Après un mois, j’ai fait un test VIH et j’ai été testé négatif. Je suis tellement heureuse de pouvoir dire que je ne suis plus une patiente atteinte du VIH/SIDA. Si vous avez le VIH/SIDA ou une hépatite, ou un herpès ou un VPH ou une maladie coronarienne ou toute autre maladie, veuillez contacter le Dr O.Water. Son e-mail est : DRWATERHIVCURECENTRE@GMAIL.COM et son numéro WhatsApp est : +2349050205019. Je vous souhaite bonne chance, que Dieu vous bénisse tous. J’ai un groupe de santé sur Twitter, suivez-moi Marcelocostapa2 et rejoignez mon groupe de santé afin que nous puissions partager des informations, sensibiliser et aider les autres.

J’AI ÉTÉ GUÉRIE DU VIRUS DE L’HERPÈS SIMPLEX PAR LE DR WATER, LE GRAND HERBORISTE.
Je suis si heureuse de partager ce témoignage avec le monde car en général, il y a tellement de doutes sur la guérison du virus de l’HERPÈS simplex. C’est réel, prenez-le au sérieux, je m’appelle HENRIETTE AMUNAZO et je suis si heureuse qu’aujourd’hui je puisse donner ce témoignage au monde et aussi aider les gens qui ont été condamnés comme moi. Qui croira qu’une herbe peut guérir complètement l’HERPÈS du corps ? Je n’ai jamais cru que cela fonctionnerait, j’ai dépensé beaucoup d’argent pour obtenir des médicaments à l’hôpital pour supprimer les épidémies, il est arrivé un moment où tout ce que je voulais, c’était la mort à venir parce que j’étais fauchée et j’avais déjà de fortes épidémies dues au virus de l’herpès. Un jour, je parcourais Internet pour poser des questions en ligne juste pour en savoir plus sur les derniers développements dans le secteur médical pour voir s’il y avait encore de l’espoir, puis je suis tombé sur un article sur ce grand homme appelé DR WATER par l’intermédiaire d’un ami en ligne qui a publiquement témoigné de la façon dont elle a également été guérie du virus de l’herpès simplex 2 par ce médecin herpès bien connu pour sa forte pratique ancienne des plantes médicinales pour la guérison de l’HERPÈS, du VIH, des VERRUES et du CANCER. Au début, j’ai douté à la fois de la femme et du médecin, tout comme tant de personnes qui voient cet article en douteraient, car médicalement, cela a été prouvé impossible, mais plus tard, j’ai décidé de lui donner une chance, alors je lui ai envoyé un e-mail. Je ne le croyais pas tellement, je voulais juste lui donner une chance. Il a répondu à mon courrier et avait besoin d’informations sur moi, puis je les lui ai envoyées, il a préparé un médicament à base de plantes (CURE) et l’a envoyé via le service de messagerie en ligne pour livraison. Il a donné mes coordonnées au bureau de messagerie. Français Ils m’ont dit que je recevrais le colis dans 3 à 5 jours et après l’avoir reçu, j’ai pris le médicament comme prescrit par lui au bout de 13 jours que le médicament a duré, il m’a dit d’aller à l’hôpital pour un test, et j’y suis allé, étonnamment après le test, le médecin m’a confirmé sans virus de l’herpès simplex, je pensais que c’était une blague, je suis allé dans d’autres hôpitaux et j’ai également été confirmé sans herpès, je dirai que c’était comme un miracle. J’ai attendu pour voir si j’aurais à nouveau des poussées et cela fait 2 mois maintenant, je n’ai pas eu de poussée. Merci monsieur de m’avoir sauvé la vie même si vous ne pouvez pas voir ce post, je ne cesserai jamais de témoigner de l’impact que vous avez eu dans ma vie en restaurant ma vie alors que j’étais stigmatisé et même évité par ma famille et mes amis. Je promets que je témoignerai toujours de vos bonnes œuvres. si vous avez le virus de l’herpès simplex, si vous êtes atteint du VIH, si vous êtes diabétique, si vous avez le virus du papillome humain ou si vous avez des verrues génitales, contactez-le et je suis sûr que vous serez guéri, contactez-le via :
