MY VEGAN PANTRY PROVISIONS
I'm not sure if I am alone on this BUT I love shopping for anything (vegan) food-related! So much so that there have been times I've felt compelled to research whether my passion for pantry supplies was a classifiable disorder!? Unfortunately for my professionalism, my interest in shopping ends here - which means most mornings are spent staring in my wardrobe wondering whether gym clothes or pyjamas will cut it for work. But all jokes aside, and since I'm once again back at uni (and therefore away from my kitchen for the next few months), I thought a post on what inspiring ingredients are often found in my vegan pantry would be apt...

Notes:
*GF - oats sold in Australia, unless specifically labelled gluten-free, are likely to have suffered cross-contamination during processing
** - A Vitamix dry jug makes it possible to blitz up a batch of rice, oat, or other flours from the grain staples I have on hand – a worthy investment if you have a Vitamix too!
^ - botanically a legume
^^ - although not a legume, TVP is a great source of plant-based protein
° - unfiltered/unclarified
