Aldi Announces their best ever vegan range for Christmas 2021.
Aldi is pulling out all the stops for vegans this Christmas. From meat-free centrepieces, to truffles and cheesecake, this year’s selection of vegan goodness is hard to beat.
For the main event, they are offering a vegan centrepiece like no other – the Plant Menu No Turkey Crown with Vegan Bacon. Featuring a turkey-style soya joint, filled with a jewelled cranberry and chestnut stuffing centre, this delicious number is hand wrapped in vegan bacon. Serve with a generous helping of the Plant Menu Vegan Gravy; a tasty accompaniment made with carrots, onions, mushrooms, and parsnips, gently simmered with thyme and rosemary. Both on sale from 19th December.
For something as pleasing on the eye as it is to taste, Aldi’s Specially Selected Vegan Festive Wreath is packed with butternut squash, chestnuts, and pumpkin seeds, topped with candied orange slices and rosemary sprigs that release an amazing aroma when cooked. What’s more, this crowd-pleasing main is served with a cranberry glaze to add a pop of colour and sweetness. On sale from 19th December.
Not forgetting the traditional Christmas Nut Roast – Aldi’s Specially Selected offering features a Plant-Based Camembert with a Cranberry Centre – how delicious!
It just wouldn’t be Christmas without pigs in blankets, would it? Aldi’s got everyone covered with its No Pigs in Blankets; delicious meat-free sausages, hand-wrapped in smoky vegan bacon. On sale 19th December. Serve alongside some Specially Selected Vegan Stuffing Balls available in Spiced Cranberry & Clementine or Sage & Onion.
