Most cereals are veggie and if you want to cut back on animal products, splash out on soya milk instead of dairy. Add some raisins, coconut pieces, sliced banana or dried fruit for extra flavour. If you’re feeling really fruity, start your day with a smoothie - a delicious way to increase your fruit intake. Blend together any fruits you have handy - all combinations go - with some orange juice, soya milk or vegan yoghurt.

If you like a full-English, then it’s time to rattle those pots ‘n’ pans! There’s a huge variety of meat-free sausages and bacon rashers available. Serve with all the trimmings - crispy hash browns, fried mushrooms, toast, grilled tomatoes and baked beans. Hardly deprivation, is it and no cholesterol and saturated fat to clog your arteries.

We can’t hold your hand around the supermarket but we can point you in the right direction. For more information, get the L Plate Vegetarian - a 36 page guide for learner veggies.
