What to eat for peri-menopause + how to talk to non-vegan friends

Today we're reviewing lunchbox cookies from Snackzilla, an exciting cauliflower hybrid from CauliShoots, and brand new dishes (including a vegan calzone!) from White Rabbit. We also have Doctor Laura Freeman from Plant Based Health Professionals answering questions on peri-menopause and diet, and Holly and Molly discuss how to chat to non-vegan friends. Should we try to convert them? If so, how? Send your own questions to us at [email protected].

California Walnuts absorb the flavours of other ingredients and give your dish a healthy crunch. 30g of California Walnuts* offers 4.4 g of protein and 1.4 g of fibre. For great tasting walnuts, keep them in the fridge. For longer storage, place them in the freezer for up to 12 months.So why not grab a bag of California Walnuts next time you are shopping?
