We tried the Sautéed Mushrooms, Aubergine Meze, Big Kalamata Pitted Olives, & Marinated Artichoke Quarters. All of these products made such delicious snacks or additions to our meals. Everything tasted authentic and high-quality. The Aubergine Meze was our absolute favourite, so flavoursome! Odysea have recently expanded their range of premium Mediterranean products in Sainsbury’s, including all of the delicious treats that we tried out plus more.

These are available from their website.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”13847″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”13858″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]We Are Tea – Protect & Soothe

The Protect & Soothe teas are the perfect duo to see you through the winter period. Interestingly, all of We Are Tea’s Super Teas have been developed with a nutritionist to do good for your body. The Protect is all about warding off unwanted bugs and nasties, so it’s packed with protective ingredients like echinacea, and elderflower. Soothe has a blend of fennel, chamomile and lemon verbena to help your digestive system. It’s like a helping hand to digest your meals whenever you’ve slightly overeaten – which happens a lot over the colder months! Seeing as both of these teas have such medicinal properties, we didn’t think they would be quite so delicious, but they really are so soothing and tasty.

While caffeine in moderation does have some proven health benefits, exceeding the upper recommended limit of 400mg can have a negative effect on our overall wellbeing. Barleycup is fortunately caffeine-free, with no added sugars, and contains only 10 calories a cup! We found that it’s just as tasty on its own, as it is with our dairy-free milk (especially oat!). Barleycup offer 4 variations, including: Barleycup Powder, Barleycup Granules, Barleycup Organic & Barleycup with Dandelion.

These are available from Holland & Barrett.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”13863″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”13853″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Marques de Caceres – Wine

It’s getting easier to find vegan-friendly wines in shops, but we do still occasionally struggle as not all suitable brands are labelled as vegan! This premium Spanish wine brand is suitable for vegans, and a really good pick if you’re on the lookout for Valentine’s Day wines! It has gorgeous, sophisticated packaging, and trust us, it does not taste any different to wines that aren’t suitable for vegans – it’s just as delicious. We tried the lovely and spicy Crianza, and saved most of it to liven up pasta sauces – it worked perfectly! It’s now our go-to wine for whenever we want to create a rich tomato sauce.

This is available from here.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_separator type=”normal”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text]A huge thank you to Marqués de Cáceres, Barley Cup, We Are Tea & Odysea for sending over these fantastic products for us to review – these blog posts wouldn’t be possible without wonderful companies allowing us to try and review their wonderful vegan products.
