The rise in vegetarian and vegan lifestyles just keeps growing and growing, with more people than ever steering away from meat and animal-based foods. But what should you do at Christmas?
Christmas is a time full of traditions and some quirks just you and your family do, I’m not just talking getting out Twister or wearing a Christmas jumper. What do you have for your first meat-free Christmas dinner? or maybe you are tired of the same nut roast your Aunty Sal makes. Infinity foods have all the tips for that perfect Christmas with the Turkey where it belongs in the field.
Tofurky has been in the press quite a bit over the last few years, providing an alternative to the 10 million turkeys that ended up on our plates last year at Christmas time! A big rolled vegan joint with a stuffing filling that comes with gravy! and that is some fine gravy.
Tofurky has been making their famous main roasts since 1995, reminding us a tradition is something done at least two years in a row. So, If this is your first Tofurky Roast dinner, congratulations – you’re halfway to a brand new tradition. Tofurky recipe ideas
