Excited to try this new (to me) product. Found in Aldi today.

Thought I'd share with everyone.

Its Vegan for anyone who is too.

Hi JoGetsFit. I have used it before I got mine in a heath shop. I expect it was a lot dearer there. 😊

My nearest is a bus ride away. Which is a bit difficult for me. In the summer one is going to be opened just over the road from me. I will be a happy bunny when it does open. 😊

how much is it and what is the food weight (value for money?)

It was on offer and works out about 80p per portion πŸ‘.. Of course depends on your portion size. Mines generous 😁

Hi I'm gluten free and my daughter's vegetarian so this would suit both of us.

I'm not an adventurous nor brilliant cook, so would like to ask what you would eat with it.

Any suggestions?

Hi πŸ‘‹

I'm going to make a spicy bean chilli with lots of vegetables.

Or perhaps just fold in some pesto and peas.

I'm fairly experimental in the kitchen πŸ˜‚

Black spaghetti. That would mess with my head... lol

Tasted gorgeous with chicken and garlic and herb philli and took a total of 10mins to prepare, ideal quick tea ! :-) x

in reply to Lytham

It was in the middle isles mind, when it's gone its gone ! I'm going back to stock up with some more tomorrow and try it with Bolognese :-) x

You can use lots of different vegetables as a pasta substitute, shredded cabbage is my favourite, yummy with carbonara sauce 😊

in reply to IndigoBlue61

I have so much to learn lol

Cabbage for me, too, with Bolognese or chilli sauce. Savoy is my favourite.

And there was one with soy beans and one made with mung bean, I couldn't taste a lot of difference between them x

JoGetsFit profile image
JoGetsFit in reply to

Yes, it's made from black beans πŸ˜‚

I was really impressed, made a change from courgetti ! :-)

100% Organic black beans. Nothing else added. πŸ‘

I'd love to be on a raw unprocessed plant based diet but sometimes need some else to cook it for me 😁

Worth knowing the health benefits of black beans include the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and a reduced risk of certain types of cancer. Black beans can also aid in digestion and the regulation of the body’s blood sugar levels. Black beans can be beneficial for various nervous system functions, can reduce the chances of birth defects, neutralize the negative effects of sulfites, and even prevent impotence in men. πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

β€œunprocessed plant based dietβ€œ sounds good but not sure I’d cope with the uncooked bit. All the healthy diets recommend lots of unprocessed plants 😊

Id be wary of going vegan, there are some essential nutrients that are hard to get. The Vegan Society is a good resource

JoGetsFit in reply to IndigoBlue61

Yes, sorry I was responding to a person who seemed critical of processed food.

Sadly it puts me off posting when you get a comment like that from StillConcerned.

Anyone got any ideas for low cost, non food 'rewards'?

I am new to the realisation I have been rewarding myself with food, bad idea, so I need other things
