I went plant based for a few weeks and my challenge was to make dishes I usually enjoy vegan. Some were successful, some were not. These baked beans however are awesome. I love having baked beans with and egg and toast on weekends. Since I […]
I make the best baked beans. It’s my favourite thing to have on Saturday morning with a fried egg and toast. I wanted to make a vegan version of my baked beans. I use the same flavours but swapped out the sausage for a plant-based […]
