I was very lucky to receive a PR delivery from Planet Organic to celebrate the launch of their nationwide delivery service. I love Planet Organic’s ethos “To us, health means providing organic, natural and sustainable products that you can trust, advice and guidance from trained experts, and acting sustainably and ethically as a business. “
In the delivery was a variety of organic goodies, which I was thrilled to receive as I am now so conscious about where my food comes from and also adopting a plant based diet. I was excited to try some new products I’d never tried before like Golden greens pulled oats ‘tomato veggie mince’ as an alternative to beef mince.
I made their veggie bolognese recipe which not only was simple and ready in under 20 minutes, the sauce was rich and the oats have an amazing meat like texture, I’m seriously impressed! It also packs in a decent amount of protein at 22.3g per serving of bolognese recipe.
I paired the bolognese with Sharpham Park organic spelt pasta, again received on my Planet Organic delivery.
