Taking part in Veganuary this year? Here are Cassie Best’s favourite plant-based products

Plant Kitchen sweetcorn & chickpea burgers

Some of the best vegan burgers we’ve tasted in a while, these patties are not only well-seasoned, but pack a punch in flavour with cumin, coriander and smoked paprika. £2.50 (pack of 2), M&S

Eaten Alive smoky pink kraut

Super crunchy with a sour edge and mild smoky chilli kick, this makes an excellent addition to a hummus and falafel wrap, or roughly chop and stir into soups. £5.99, (375g), planet organic. com

Nush chive ‘cheese’ spread

Made using almond milk, vegan cheese cultures, British sea salt and chives, this dairy-free spread impressed us with its thick, creamy texture and tangy flavour. £2.75, Whole Foods Market

Heck Bollywood Bangers vegan sausages

A satisfying blend of cauliflower, lentils and Indian spices, these sausages would be delicious with mango chutney and a cooling vegan raita. £3 (pack of 6), Asda

Ombar centres coconut & vanilla

Vegan or not, Ombar is up there among my favourite brands of chocolate – I always have some in the cupboard at home. This is my favourite of their flavours, with a gooey coconut and vanilla centre. £2.10 (70g), ocado.com
