If you don't have time to come up with creative vegetarian and vegan dishes yourself, fret not! Woolies has done all the hard work for you. Their new plant-based range stars a variety of grains, legumes and pulses, and includes everything you need to start making the move to choosing food that cares.

The vegan range

- Get your heat on with the vegetable green curry: broccoli and roasted aubergine smothered in a fragrant, creamy green curry sauce and served on a bed of jasmine rice.

- Move over falalels! Pea-lafels are a mix of bulgur wheat and couscous, served with roasted Mediterranean veg and Moroccan spice drizzle.

- If you're craving a bolognese but don't want the mince, the butternut-and-lentil layered bake will tick all the right boxes. A rich lentil bolognese is layered between sheets of butternut, and topped with a crunchy seed mix.

The vegetarian range

- Fancy a risotto that's a little less stirring and a lot more plant-based? Try the deliciously creamy barley risotto. It's topped with nutty, roasted pumpkin and will be ready in a matter of minutes!

- Hello, veggie bangers! Just when you thought the plant-based range couldn't get any better, the lentil-and-mushroom sausages with caulimash make an appearance. Served on a bed of creamy caulimash with a sweet onion gravy and steamed butternut, these veggie sausages are the real deal!

- It's an old favourite with an excellent upgrade: halloumi cheese served on a bed of lentil and chickpeas, cooked in a tangy tomato sauce. It's the perfect work-week lunch!
