Vivera Veggie Steak

-

Pack of two (200g), £2.99, Tesco

Per 100g: Calories, 222; saturated fat, 5g; protein, 17g; sugar, 1.9g; salt, 1.4g; fibre, 3.6g THIS is made with soya and wheat proteins and coloured with beetroot to simulate the ‘bleed’ of rare steak. The maker also adds iron and vitamin B12 — both important for healthy red blood cells — so it’s nutritiona­lly closer to meat than many other vegetarian alternativ­es.

However, the added coconut oil makes it higher in saturated fat than actual steak and it contains nearly a quarter of your daily salt.

TASTE: Quite peppery with texture similar to steak.
