  • Here's our weekly food shop for 2 vegan parents and one vegetarian toddler! It's a pretty decent balance of healthy food, treats & snacks. The fresh stuff lasts us the week but the rest tends to keep us going for around two weeks.
    Hope you find some vegan budget inspiration from this video!

    I find these videos so interesting! I’m veggie but the only dairy I really eat is cheese so my shop is similar to this. I love Aldi for basics but I’m a sucker for all the branded vegan food in Sainsbury’s!

    I don't know if you've seen them, but Aldi do some AMAZING spicy taco beans! so good!

      are they new?? I think I saw them when I was doing this shop but I didn't pick any up, they did intrigue me tho

      Yasmin Johal I’d never seen them before until my dad brought them home one day! They’re so good, perfect for a chilli or burritos ☺️

    Absolutely no shade to you on this in the slightest, plastic waste is imho a business responsibility more than a consumer one and *not* something worth pouring energy into when we're living on a budget - but it's shocking comparing Aldi UK and Aldi Germany and seeing how much extra packaging they use in the UK stores 😱
    Almost all the fruit/veg you bought is available loose here, apart from broccoli, and the mushrooms which you can get in a cardboard box with a cling film wrap. It's mad how much further supermarkets could go on the waste they produce and just... don't 🤔

      yeah aldi is actually one of the worst for this. I did a plastic free week for Mutha and found that big supermarkets like sainsburys you could get pretty much every fruit or veg except grapes /berries plastic free but aldi doesn't really have anything except bananas and spring onions

    This really inspired me to go to Aldi this weekend, it's quite a long cycle from where I live, but it looks like its worthwhile!

    When you were talking about mushrooms it literally made me so sad, they are my absolute fav thing! But my fiancé hates them and we share most of our meals so I hardly get to eat mushrooms! Talk about first world problems 😂

    Chickpea curry is one of our go-to's! Love that.😍 Also so jealous you have those quorn deli options, we don't have those in the states I don't think, definitely not at our Aldis. I love watching these videos to see what I might be missing out on! Not so much a fan of Aldi using so much plastic but regardless, love Aldi. Great haul! I also have a channel where I share vegan eats and sustainability, I'd love for you to check it out. ❤ Otherwise thanks so much for sharing your haul with us! 💚💚

      poundland and heron (if that's accessible to you) often do alpro and minor figures oat milk for £1!! but yes I agree the aldi one is pretty good given how cheap it is x

    • @YasminJohal
      @YasminJohal  Před 4 lety +1

      there is probably about 10 or 11 days worth of meals from that! maybe more but I do what I eat in a week videos sometimes (there's one next week) that show what kinda things we eat! x

      Yasmin Johal yeah I love your what I eat in a day/week videos always very inspiring for new food ideas! Very interesting to see how many meals you can get out of a shop - my partner and I usually spend £50 for a 16 day shop but obviously don’t have a child to account for too! x

    I love videos like this, I'm also super nosey! Havn't been able to go to Aldi or Lidl in ages as still sheilding, really want to try the sweets. Don't think Tesco do any sour sweets like this!
    And agree with the tins, I always have loads of different beans and tinned toms in the cupboard. Also tinned coconut milk for easy curries!

      Tesco do fizzy rainbow stripes, fizzy strawb laces and fizzy cola laces which are vegan, found by all the normal sweets. The non fizzy ones aren't vegan though
