Planted canapés

The best vegan canapés

What would an ultimate plant-based diner party be without the iconic amuse-bouche that is vegan smoked ‘salmon’ blinis? We love this recipe from our Development Chef, Iona, with slow-roasted red peppers flavoured with nori and gently coloured with beetroot sitting on top of vegan blinis with vegan cream cheese, a sprig of dill and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Vegan gluten-free canapés

This recipe is all about prepping in advance, so all that’s left to do once you’re dressed is simply assemble and enjoy. It’s another mouth-watering and gluten-free idea from Iona’s. This recipe for crispy vegan polenta bites are crunchy, sweet and tangy and warm your guests up nicely for what’s to come.
