We all know that eating more plants is beneficial for our health. From providing us with a rich range of micronutrients through to feeding the gut microbiome, prioritising plants has become prominent in the world of health. Whether you’re a full-time vegetarian or vegan or just trying to cut back on animal products, adding more plant-based food to your diet can offer a range of benefits for your health and the planet.

For many of us, the thought of adopting a whole new diet can be overwhelming and unrealistic. That’s why we’re not about promoting restrictive diets here at Aston Lucas Gourmet. Instead, rather than taking away certain food groups, we’re focusing on what we can add in. For us, it’s more plants. Check out some of our favourite plant-based products here and how you can incorporate them into your daily life:

Top Tip: For an extra helping of plants, try adding some spinach or greens of your choosing.
