Vivera Veggie Shawarma Kebab
Vivera’s kebab offering is simply delicious; made from soya protein, it is spiced with earthy herbs and spices, and the result is tender, delicious kebab meat that is very moreish. Add a salad and your favourite flatbread or pita for a filling dinner or work-from-home lunch.
Oumph! Spiced Kebab
A personal favourite, these spiced kebab meat strips are a great alternative for those that miss the texture of meat, as it’s pretty spot on. It’s one of the more expensive options on the list, priced at £3.50 at Sainsbury’s, but it’s still well worth having in your freezer. If you have any salad bits in your fridge that are on the brink of wilting, it’s an excellent excuse to get making your favourite kebab.
Sainsbury’s Tandoori Vegan Kebab
Sainsbury’s has come through for all your barbeque needs this summer, with these wonderful tandoori kebabs. Made from a mix of chickpeas, cooked brown rice, onions, carrots peas and spices, they’re great for pan-frying or adding to your grill when the weather is warm. They also get nice and crisp for a lovely caramelisation that makes each kebab absolutely delicious.
The Vegetarian Butcher Good Karma Shawarma Vegetarian Kebab
If you’ve been on the hunt for a good vegan chicken shawarma alternative, then look no more, because this number from The Vegetarian Butcher is better than good: it’s great. It’s herbs, juicy and has a great texture that’s perfect for wrapping up in pitta and loading with vegan tzatziki.
Quorn Turkish Kebab Strips
Made with Quorn’s signature mycoprotein, these vegan kebab strips are zesty and herby thanks to a flavour-packed marinade. It’s a great option for midweek lunches, so get your wraps and sauces ready for a filling and delicious afternoon feast.
Wicked Kitchen Chilli And Lime Kebabs
Sainsbury’s tandoori kebabs have got competition in the form of Tesco’s Wicked Kitchen, which has produced these succulent chilli and lime kebabs. Made from wheat and pea protein, these are full of flavour and are ideal for barbeques — and they’re especially great for anyone that likes their vegan kebab meat with a kick.
