Nothing builds excitement more than those three little words, ‘what’s for dinner’? Even though that phrase is filled with the promise of delicious possibilities, it can also leave you feeling ‘hangry’ as you stare into the depths of your fridge. Suddenly the thought of having to defrost food and wait yet another hour doesn’t seem worth the effort. Dinner doesn’t have to be that way though… Denny Plant Based Meal Solutions are ideal for stirring inspiration when hunger strikes — they’re simple, satisfying and snappy. Whether you’re a vegan, vegetarian or flexitarian, the Denny Plant Based range will Add Goodness to Every Meal.

Denny Plant Based Range

The beauty of plant-based meals is that you don’t have to be vegan to enjoy them. Anyone that loves simple dinners filled with sustenance will love the Denny Plant Based range. Made with a blend of mushrooms and chickpeas, they’re protein-packed and flavour-forward. And, when it comes to finding the perfect protein, texture makes all the difference, but even the fussiest of eaters will love the ‘meaty’ mushroom mouthfeel of the Denny Plant Based range. They’re soy-free, contain no added MSG and are naturally gluten-free. We use two products from the Denny Plant Based range to create two ridiculously easy and tasty meals that save on time without skimping on flavour.

Easy Plant Based Sausage & Olive Pasta

Denny Plant Based Sausages are incredibly versatile, use them for your brekkie, boujee brunch or braai or simply spice up an everyday meal. Curated for your taste buds, they’re available in Spicy and Smokey BBQ Flavour and are loaded with umami. We chose the Smokey BBQ Flavour, that’s slightly reminiscent of chorizo, for this mouthwatering pasta dish.

With midweek cooking, simplicity is key, so we wanted to create a dish that would use everyday pantry items that you’d have on hand. We started by sautéing onions until caramelised and golden, harnessing their natural sweetness. To that, we added tinned whole peeled tomatoes, that naturally break down to a chunky, flavourful sauce. A packet of pitted kalamata olives add a tang, herbs add flavour and the final inclusion is sliced Denny Plant Based Smokey BBQ Sausages. Tossed with cooked fettuccine, this is a simple, yet sumptuous meal.

Plant Based Almost-a-Curry Burger

Winter will have you craving all your favourite comfort foods and having to choose between a burger and curry is impossible. Fusing the flavours of both dishes, we created the ultimate ‘Almost-a-Curry Burger’. Denny Plant Based Patties are stacked with flavour and the amount of bite in this dish is just right!

Sticking with the theme of simple and delicious, Denny Plant Based Patties were cooked in three sizzling minutes.

We decided to ditch the burger buns and made some fluffy, garlic-infused flatbread instead. Bolstering the flavour of the ‘burger’ we whipped up some curried mayo using vegan mayo, zesty lemon juice and curry powder. Tomato and onion sambal, grated carrot and a refreshing mint-infused raita add layers of flavour. Sticking with the theme of simple and delicious, Denny Plant Based Patties were cooked in three sizzling minutes. After assembling this bad boy, you’ll want to take one big bite at the expense of messy hands and sauce in the corner of your mouth. Savour the fresh bursts of fragrant coriander, crunchy cucumber ribbons and satisfying spice. Don’t be shy!
