Plant Based Mince

Anyone else devastated by the discontinuation of the Oumph! mince in South Africa? I’ve tried just about every mince alternative I could get my hands on, but nothing really compares to it. This Denny plant based mince is one of the many minces I’ve tried in order to find a suitable replacement for Oumph! but it definitely falls short in the protein department. Tastewise, I was pleasantly surprised because wow, it does not look good 😅 what it lacks in presentation, it makes up for in taste. I also find that it is generally much cheaper than some of the other mince options. This is a soy free product, which is great for anyone who might be allergic. The protein sources in the mince include mushrooms (58%), chickpeas (23%) and pea protein (3%), but it only comes up to 6.9g of protein per 100g. I prepared it with some onions, mushrooms and some tomato sauce and I had it with spaghetti in a béchamel sauce. I really enjoyed it and I would have it again 🍝 #veganinsouthafrica #veganin2023 #fortheanimals #forthedollar #forthepartners #veganfortheanimals

The version before this was salty, so this version is better, but I think I preferred the taste and texture of the older version. But I do like that it's soya and gluten-free. And it does make a good spaghetti. But honestly, we only buy this if it's on special.

Brilliant! Loved the consistency, made a beautiful lasagne. #wearelove #greyton

By far my fave in this range. Consistency is fair and really works well in a veggie ragu with pasta. Priced well too! #wearelove #greyton

This plant based mince is lovely! It's especially great with pasta.
