Per 100g: Calories, 165; saturated fat, 0.7g; protein, 11g; sugar, 2.6g; salt, 0.5g; fibre, 1.6g PORK is replaced with wheat protein and flour — the result is a meal with 70 per cent less saturated fat than the standard toad in the hole.
A serving provides less than 5 per cent of your daily limit of saturated fat. It also has a decent amount of satiating protein — 23g per serving — and is lower in salt than the meat version. But it’s high in refined carbohydrates such as white flour which, in excess, disrupt blood sugar levels. Overall, not particularly nutritious.
TASTE: With gravy, tastes just like a meaty toad in the hole.
