The perfect granola bowl 👌🏽

🌱Goji berries are a popular fruit used in traditional Chinese medicine.

🌱They have been used since ancient times to increase longevity as they are known to benefit the liver, kidney, and vision.

🥣We use Goji berries in our seeded granola, as well as adding some colour and nutritional value, it’s the perfect chewy contrast to the crunchy oats and seeds.

🌱Keep an eye out for nutritional info of ingredients we use at Cultivate.

Good morning - it smells like granola in the Cultivate 🏠

Making it fresh for a delivery today. I always cook in small batches, even for markets. As I feel it gives the granola a fresh taste.

I’ve just launched two vegan chick’n deli pots - each pot is one portion and you can multi-buy and freeze for a rainy day.

Here is one way I like to have mine, in a wrap with lots of salad and coriander yogurt 👌🏽

This week I’m in doing deliveries over the bank holiday. I’m pleased to announce two new vegan chick’n deli pots.

Yesterday we travelled to Surrey for the Surrey Vegan Walton-on-Thames vegan market. Great day, and amazing selection of traders!

So it’s been a busy couple of weeks experimenting, and throwing myself in the kitchen has been worth it - I now have created two amazing burgers!

Pink - bean and roasted pepper
Black - creamy tandoori chick’n (vegan of course)
Salad box with tandoori vegan chick’n

Looking forward to selling these at local markets very soon!

Can anyone help me come up with catchy name for each burger?

Good morning - fresh out the oven 🍔

Has anyone seen an aubergine like this before?? You can’t tell from the picture, but this was bigger than the size of my hand!

The one thing that seemed to be different, from a regular aubergine, is that the inside was very clear and white.

It was a great pizza topping! 🍕

Granola makes the perfect little gift to say thank you.

This customer wanted to say thank you to a friend who helped her move storage over the weekend.

Message me if you would like to send someone thanks with food.

I seen a member from a vegan/veggie Facebook group suggest making tofu as a meat alternative. It reminded me of this simple recipe I created last month and thought I would share.

Tofu is a good way to get some protein on your plate. A lot of people are put off due to the texture - hopefully this recipe helps with getting it crispy and full of flavour.

To note, you can use any spices/herbs of choice mixed in the batter.

Thank you Christine Fox for supporting a new local business.

A successful North East business women - glad I could save you some time on shopping for some gluten free granola!

We are approaching July and the weather is pretty sporadic at the moment. Although we are entering a post covid phase - we still need to take good care of our bodies. Here is one drink you can incorporate into your life.

Fresh oranges, or fresh orange juices with whole turmeric and ginger.

You can purchase fresh ginger/turmeric at most supermarkets/international shops within the town area.

Happy Sunday! Thank you to those who ordered a nut roast for today - deliveries are done!

Where possible, I will always do my best to make natural products, using the healthier option. Most supermarkets now have a good selection of nut roasts, however I personally have never been able to bring myself to purchase, after taking one look at the ingredient list, with all its added preservatives, fat, sugar etc. I may as well eat a cake! To me a nut roast should be fresh and nutritious. I have had a few vegan roast dinners from pubs/restaurants - which have been ok, but they usually include lots of potatoes to fill you up fast, and runny gravy.

This is why I have done my absolute best to make this with ingredients which are not heavily processed or contain additional preservatives, making this as natural as possible*.

Take the homemade gravy for example, it requires all the ingredients to simmer with a broth (or stock pot). Again, these contain unnatural acids, gelling agents and preservatives. Therefore, I make my own broth the day prior – just to make the gravy alone! Yes, it’s an extra two hours, rather than five minutes of purchasing a stock pot and adding to my gravy – but it’s worth it, knowing I’m selling a product that is genuinely healthy to those making lifestyle changes to become plant-based.

*to note, the only ‘processed’ ingredients some may consider unnatural are: puff pastry, very small amounts of soy sauce used, and mixture of white/spelt flour.

Does anyone else think their homemade bread will last the week and by the next morning..... 🤭🤫

Good morning, another hot day - don’t forget to stay hydrated. A drink that helps me in the hot weather is an iced coffee - which is simple to make.

In a blender mix the following:
- Almond or oat milk
- Frozen bananas (see below if you don’t want to add bananas)
- Ice
-Coffee/water mix
-Chunk of dark chocolate (optional)

If you don’t want bananas in your coffee, add some sort of sweetener, such as agave, sugar or honey (vegan honey - if you are vegan).
