| For anyone looking for more local alternatives to much loved imported ingredients, Victoria Cowan's pulse-based guacamole replaces avocados with British-grown marrowfat peas. It's super delicious, nutritious and good for the planet. |
Peas are high in protein and contain all 9 essential amino acids, have a low glycemic index and high soluble fibre content, are full of heart-friendly minerals (magnesium, potassium and calcium) and rich in antioxidant nutrients like vitamin C.
Not only that, they’re a very important crop for agriculture too. Like other legumes they fix nitrogen, solubilise phosphates, promote soil carbon sequestration, increase soil organic matter, improve soil structure and maintain soil biodiversity.
Victoria has served her guac on a soda bread made from camelina seeds and Vanessa Kimbell’s wholemeal diversity blend flour, along with spring onion and radish for freshness and texture.

Method

Wheat bran is a wonderful ingredient if you’re looking to increase your fibre consumption as it contains over 40g of fibre in 100g of bran. It works beautifully in cakes, especially in combination with wet ingredients like sweet potato and apple, because it absorbs a lot of water, making the final bake just the right level of moist. The mouthfeel of this tea loaf is not dissimilar to corn bread.
A nourishing, plant-based classic made with British-grown grains and pulses - finished with a spoonful of SUCSEED for extra fibre, healthy fats and botanical goodness.
These wholesome oatcakes with festive redcurrant relish make a wonderfully simple yet elegant addition to any Christmas table. Combining the nutty richness of oats, puffed quinoa and wholemeal flour, they’re crisp at the edges and soft within, the perfect base for a jewel-bright relish of redcurrants, berries, apple, and orange. Sweet, tangy, and lightly spiced, this colourful topping brings a burst of seasonal flavour that pairs beautifully with the earthy oatcakes. Delicious served with Greek yoghurt and honey, they make a festive breakfast, afternoon treat, or a cheerful nibble for holiday gatherings.
