Budget supermarket Aldi has launched a new vegan range, proving that a plant-based diet doesn’t need to be boring or expensive.

Ahead of Veganuary, Aldi has released more vegan products for customers, including popular comfort foods like pizza, sausage rolls and curries.

These new products have been on Aldi shelves across the UK on January 2nd, with some of them appearing as their popular Special Buy range.

Some of these products will also be available beyond January, which is great news for anyone who wants to follow a plant-based diet long term.

The first vegan-friendly product is their Plant Menu Vegan Sausage Roll, which is available in two flavours, No Pork or BBQ Jackfruit. Available as part of their Special Buy range, they cost just 99p.

Following the success of Greggs’ vegan sausage roll, we wonder if Aldi’s will be a hit amongst plant-based foodies?

Perfect for lunching on the go, Aldi’s new Eat & Go Korean BBQ Style Chick’n sandwich has chicken-style pieces smothered in a Korean style BBQ sauce, topped with pickled onions, vegan mayo and spinach.

It’s a steal too, at just £1.69. If you’re after a cheap lunch Aldi have got you covered with this one!

Or, for £1.79, you can enjoy their Eat & Go Vegan Onion Bhaji with Sweet Potato and Cauliflour wrap. It’s filled with onion bhaji, spiced cauliflower and sweet potato puree, pickled cabbage, mango and apricot chutney, and spinach.

All of this deliciousness is wrapped in a spiced tortilla, for easy eating wherever you are.

Aldi is also offering a range of vegan ready meals for customers, who want easy evening meals that are free from animal products. Two popular options are Inspired Cuisine Vegan Mushroom Bolognese or Three-Bean Chilli, which are ideal winter warmers.

These two meals are available for £2.49 each.
