Buffalo Cauliflower wings
Cauliflower is neutral in taste, meaning it is easy to mimic anything you desire, even finger licking buffalo wings. It has a meaty texture, which has proven to be a great plant-based alternative to meat, full of flavour & bite. Buffalo cauliflower wings are fun to eat and look like nuggets! Simply, mix up some corn starch and mild spices like garlic & onion powder, salt and pepper, bake them up until golden and serve them with your favourite sauce.

Mini Sausage Rolls
There is nothing more satisfying or delicious than making your own sausage rolls.
