Vegan Orzo Bolognese (XL Serving)

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Slow-cooked British Soya in a rich tomato sauce, combined with oregano, star anise and orzo, a rice-shaped pasta.

Firepot says

Our vegan orzo bolognese is a twist on the classic Italian dish. Instead of beef mince, we use healthy soya; instead of spaghetti, we used orzo — tiny, rice-shaped pasta. To this we add a delicate balance of oregano and star anise, mixed in a traditional tomato sauce. This is a meal guaranteed to please the whole family, offering a real a taste of Italian comfort food when you’re far away from home.

Our Verdict

FIREPOT use high-quality natural ingredients and slow cook them in small batches. There is no freeze-drying involved, no preservatives, and no ingredients you won't recognise. And not only does their food taste good, but it’s exactly what you need to fuel any adventure. Nutritious, delicious and simple to make.

7/10

STAFF'S TASTE TEST - Bursting with savoury flavours, this vegan orzo bolognese delivers a satisfying twist on the classic Italian dish. The tender orzo perfectly complements the hearty plant-based "meat", creating a comforting meal that even non-vegans will enjoy. The orzo was a good vehicle for the sauce, which rehydrated well.
