Sponsored by Tesco but all words and (honest) opinions are my own!
This Veganuary, Tesco launched their new ‘Wicked Kitchen‘ range of vegan ready meals and people are beyond excited about it! The call for more meat-free, vegan options has been heard and it’s now easier than ever to curb those pizza cravings, grab a quick ready meal for those lazy nights or find delicious wraps and sandwiches for work lunches.
This range was developed in collaboration with chef Derek Sarno (check out his BBQ Shroom Buns recipe I shared last year) who is on a mission to satisfy the demand for delicious but convenient vegan food.
Derek said “My aim from the start was to create recipes that would delight vegans and give them the options they craved, whilst also attracting meat-eaters and encouraging them to try plant-based foods. The flavours are well-balanced and layered with bold, intense, delicious flavours so that Wicked Kitchen can help even more people transition to a plant-based diet, as well as satiating the needs and wants of vegans.”
And he has certainly delivered.

My thoughts:
So far, I’ve tried the two pizzas (Caponata Sourdough Pizza & BBQ Mushroom Sourdough Pizza) and three of the ready meals (Curried Cauli Onion Bhaji & Coconut Rice, Naked Burrito & Veggie Pasta and Amazeballs) and am very impressed.
The ready meals were absolutely delicious and really focused on enhancing the natural vibrant flavours of the vegetables, instead of using artificial additives. My favourite of those was the Naked Burrito because of the perfect balance of flavours.
Conclusion:
Really really impressed with what I’ve tried so far and cannot wait to get my hands on some of the wraps and sandwiches! It’s so exciting to have more vegan options available now and especially from somewhere as convenient as Tesco and something that uses whole, delicious ingredients.
