Rogue Vegan Meals Incredibly Delicious Food

Tuesday, March 13, 2018
 

    Healthy Afro-Carribean food delivered straight to your door!


About Rogue Vegan Meals

Rogue Vegan meals are an Afro-Caribbean and Asian meal catering and meal preparation service. Eating consciously is at the forefront of the business, remaining aware of what different foods and substances do to the body. Making sure to include little to no preservatives, additives, tap water (fluoride etc) or soy. Rogue Vegan meals use strictly natural and organic whole foods and hope to include more variety as the establishment grows. The owners consider small details like using Spelt flour instead of wheat and quinoa for people with higher nutritional preferences. Making sure that they cater adequately for everyone not just the health conscious.
    Jaz and Lorre put time, love and positive vibes into the food they create and they say the greatest part is seeing people enjoy it!

I know I do! In between my own ups and downs with motivation, I really appreciate their food and what they do especially when I don't feel like cooking.

The Founders and Why Plant Based?

Jaz and Lorre are a vegan couple who both wanted to combine both of their ideals into their food creations and it's clearly part of the beauty inspired in what they do. With influences by many teachers including the legends known as Dr.Sebi, Laila Africa and Queen Afua. The food they cook is undoubtedly delicious, with Lorre being vegan 5 years and passionate about healing healthful foods and Jaz being vegan for 2 years yet still not wanting to miss out on her junk food favourites. They lovingly merged the two and created versatile yet creative meal prep's for everyone to enjoy.

Jaz highlights that there are 100's of varieties of foods to choose from aside from eating meat and that it makes you more creative with your food and your recipes. She believes that it broadens your horizons because you can become extremely artistic and innovative with your food. I completely agree, when I am flowing creatively food is and has become more than just eating. It's a highly experimental, inventive and expressive thing to do.
    This is one of my favourite things about ordering Rogue Vegan meals.

What inspired Rogue Vegan Meals?

In the beginning, they had a friend that wanted to try to incorporate more vegan meals into their diet. After asking friends and family whether they prepared vegan meals, it initially started as a 1 person venture. Cooking for friends and family which then expanded. Jaz and Lorre found that a lot of people didn't have time to make the food and most importantly they didn't know what vegans ate, what to make or where to start. Making traditional good tasting, balanced and wholesome food was difficult for many people.

These were a few of the many reasons The Rogue Vegans began meal preparation, to help progress and support the vegan community, helping the public to transition from meat. fish and dairy and also to avoid heavily processed foods. Without compromising on taste. They wanted to inspire people to include alkaline wholefood aspects with cultural Afro-Carribean and Asain favourites while remaining healthful, flavoursome and nutritionally optimised food.

The Mission

This year you can expect that The Rogue Vegans will establish a place of trade serving hot food weekly, with alkaline wholefood and fast food options available. Which I am so excited about, their food is mouthwateringly tasty. Not to mention fulfilling their desire to assist the larger vegan community with knowledge and information on a what to eat, recipes and nutrition. The future sounds delightful for The Rogue Vegans and Rogue Vegan Meals.

They have a youtube channel sharing different ideas on cooking vegan at home. For more information about veganism and their personal journey check them out at The Rogue Vegans on youtube and rogue.vegans on Instagram.



At the moment The Rogue Vegans do vegan meal prep and catering, they deliver all across London, with free delivery to certain areas. You can DM or call them for orders. Order on Saturdays for delivery on Mondays. Payments are accepted by direct debit, Litcoin, Dash and Ripple. (Due to faster and lower transaction fees. Crypto will be in future!)

Smiles all round,
From your favourite plant based crypto/blockchain advocate :)

What The Pitta! London's First Vegan Doner Kebab

Saturday, December 9, 2017

Eating Meat Free More Often

What The Pitta, a completely vegan alternative to it's unhealthy original. What The Pitta doner kebabs, contain no saturated animal body parts or fats, the food is completely meat, egg, and dairy free and it tastes like something we should all try eating. Best Kebab I've ever tasted and the only one I'm likely to ever eat.


London's appetite for all things plant based is on the rise, as more realise how important it is for health in the city

About What The Pitta!

What The Pitta are big on eating meat free more often and being plant based vegan and so am I.  For the owners of What The Pitta it isn't about turning people vegan, its about reducing our intake of meat creating satisfying food that encourages people to reduce meat and think consciously about where our food is coming from. What The Pitta's mission is to support our personal and environmental health for each other and the planet. They support the global goals for sustainable development project and try to incorporate as many principles as possible into it. By choosing meat-free food you are contributing to the future of our planet thriving sustainably

Plant Based Vegan Fast Food

Turning vegan can be a difficult task, it seems there is, even more reason to care about your health then ever. Of course, that means giving up things like those meaty kebabs, that are all kinds of wrong for your health and the environment. With that said there are some foods that are just sentimental to us Londoners, kebab shops are everywhere. Even more, reason to try the plant-based alternative.

What The Pitta was even nominated the best British kebab awards
(because as kebabs go this is by far the best, hands down)

At What The Pitta you can enjoy vegan baklava, Turkish pizza (lahmacun), couscous salad, and mixed meze, tzatziki, bread, hummus and sauces all prepared from scratch, as all our food should be! What The Pitta's doner kebabs are made from non-gmo soya plant protein seasoned well and grilled for a that smokey kebab flavor. You can even have yours cooked without oil! I went for the meal deal 1. I got a fully loaded doner wrap, complete with all the fresh fillings. Straight away you can tell that the bread wrap was freshly made, it was light fluffy which complimented how the food was. After eating it, I was stuffed but it didn't make me feel heavy or lethargic. Which meant I had even more room for the sweet almond baklava for dessert and some PH worthy Saka water to wash it all down.

The perfect treat for a takeaway, it was my first time eating a doner kebab since turning plant-based vegan, I rarely eat soya but this was a worthy exception. They are not yet catering to the gluten-free champs yet but apparently, they will be in 2018. There are plenty of nut-free alternatives to choose from if you have nut allergies too.
What The Pitta is available via delivery at Ubereats and Deliveroo. They have 2 locations which is in Boxpark Croydon and Boxpark Shoreditch. You can find out more about What The Pitta on their website.


Yet no authentic experience comes with only good side my question to What The Pitta is:


I would also love to try some more plant based recreations of traditonal Turkish dishes, cater for us plant based food junkie's we appreciate it! Maybe even a soya alternative too?

Smiles all round
