Plant-based recipes within everyone's reach - Easy to prepare and nutritionally balanced.
Prepare delicious, 100% plant-based dishes in just 2.5 minutes
Preparing vegan recipes that are elaborate, nutritionally balanced and tasty requires a lot of time and availability of fresh ingredients, which is not always possible.
HSN's Veggie ready meals are the solution, as they have been prepared naturally with quality vegetable ingredients, selected for their flavour, and combined to provide a good nutritional balance. It only takes 2.5 minutes to make in the microwave, no mess, no need to know how to cook, easy isn't it?
You no longer need to prepare an unhealthy fast food meal or spend hours in your kitchen. Delicious, natural and nutritionally balanced ready meals are now available from HSN.
They do not require refrigeration for storage. You can keep it in the pantry for months
HSN ready meals, unlike most ready meals that you can buy in specialised shops, do not need a refrigerator.
This is a clear advantage, and here's why:
If you like to have ready meals available to eat when you don't have time or don't want to cook, with 5 or 6 trays you have already taken up a whole shelf in the fridge, and your fridge may have 4-5 shelves. If you are someone who doesn't eat ready meals daily, and only use them when you need to prepare a meal quickly to get on with your daily routine, the 5 trays you have bought can sit for weeks in your fridge, taking up space, which is very impractical.
At HSN, we have worked with professional chefs who cook with a patented preservation optimisation process that hybridises thermal sterilisation and protective atmosphere packaging. Both processes are explained below, but basically what they allow is that your trays can be stored for months at room temperature, without losing flavour or going bad. You only need to store them in closed spaces and away from light, you can store them in cabinets, cupboards, shelves, pantries... Much more practical, isn't it? The space in your fridge that is more limited is entirely for your fresh food that you need to consume in the next few days, not for prepared trays that can be kept for months.
100% plant-based quality ingredients - Discover how we prepare our recipes
HSN's special recipes for vegan diets are prepared exclusively with vegetable ingredients and contain no ingredients of animal origin, making them 100% suitable for vegan diets.
For example, we use top-quality ingredients in the preparation of our ready meals:
We always use a fully unrefined wheat-based carbohydrate base. You will find couscous, bulgur and pasta in the dishes. In addition, they all have natural protein ingredients, such as chickpeas, beans, various sprouts, and seeds.
Enjoy HSN's delicious vegan recipes, prepared slowly, with love and time, just as you would do at home. Quality and nutritional balance!
280g per tray - Excellent as a first course on a vegan menu
Most of HSN's ready meals are prepared on trays in generous quantities, often around 400 grams, such as Fit and Gourmet meals.
However, for vegan dishes, we have decided to reduce these quantities, as thanks to the fibre content of their ingredients, the satiety index they generate is high. Increasing the amount of food to equivalent quantities to the above means that the consumption of carbohydrates (characteristic of plant-based foods) will skyrocket.
At HSN, we are committed to responsible consumption, and we won't prepare trays to go to waste, just as we are clear that our customers need to be satiated. So we have carefully analysed the amount of food we provide on each plate so that it is well balanced to satiate you properly and avoid food waste.
Veggie dishes are ideal for vegans with a big appetite as a first course and also for those who are in the bulking phase. As an idea, it can be accompanied by a second, mainly protein-based main course made from fermented soy.
However, for people in definition or who simply follow a healthy vegan lifestyle, veggie dishes can make a complete meal. They are moderately caloric and generate good levels of satiety, making them excellent for both lunch and dinner.
International recipes - Discover the inspirations for Veggie dishes
The vegan dishes are inspired by different flavours of international cuisine, you can try them all and decide which one you like best:
- Oriental: Pearl couscous and chickpeas - Prepared with soy sauce and peanut butter. It is ideal for people who love the sweet-salty contrast.
- Continental: Kashotto with vegetable sprouts and pumpkin seeds - A universal flavour reminiscent of traditional cuisine to everyone's taste.
- Italian: Pasta orzo with olive oil - A dish of our Mediterranean cuisine, the authentic taste of pasta with virgin olive oil.
- Mexican: Pearl couscous and red beans - With a taste of Central American cuisine, enjoy the intensely spicy chilli flavour of the couscous and bean combination.
The veggie-style dishes are not particularly spicy, and although the Mexican recipe does have a characteristic pungent taste, it is very tolerable even for people who are not particularly spicy. Fit dishes are those with a spicier and more intense average taste profile.
Enjoy vegan dishes to suit all tastes, whatever your culinary interests. We are sure we have an ideal option for you.
Why is rapeseed oil used instead of other oils such as sunflower oil?
Because rapeseed oil is an excellent choice, known as the 'olive oil of Northern Europe'.
We use rapeseed oil because it is a seed oil rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, which thanks to its natural antioxidants is much more resistant to temperature than other unsaturated oils. Its fatty acids don't go rancid and its taste is neutral, unlike other options such as olive oil itself.
The fatty acids in rapeseed oil make it a heart-healthy oil, and we do not use sunflower oil instead because it is less optimal as it tends to oxidise more quickly, making its fatty acids rancid and worsening both the flavour of the dish and its nutritional properties.
Rapeseed oil has an unfairly bad reputation because in the 1980s, due to the similar characteristics it shared with olive oil, it was sold on the black market as if it were olive oil. In one production run by counterfeiters, they used a pesticide that contaminated the oil, poisoning people who bought it.
This has nothing to do with rapeseed and rapeseed oil, which is produced according to regulated processes and, unlike other oils such as palm oil, is healthy and does not contribute to deforestation. It is a nutritionally healthy and environmentally friendly oil.
Why does it contain traces of non-vegan foods? Doesn't that make the dish non-vegan?
On HSN's vegan ready meals, you can read on the label that there may be traces of non-vegan foods, such as fish, so why is it a vegan dish?
Traces, which may be present in dishes, are not ingredients that are used in their preparation, but ingredients that are present in the cooking space. So for allergic people, it is something to consider, as simple environmental exposure can generate allergic reactivity, but it is not something that conditions the ethical choice of food.
>Put it this way:
If you live in a house with other people who aren't vegan but you are, and you cook in the same kitchen, does this mean that your dishes are no longer vegan? No, doesn't it? You follow a vegan diet because the non-vegan foods you have in your kitchen are not used in your recipes.
The traceability is the same, which is why HSN's veggie dishes are 100% vegan.
Preserving veggie-ready meals, what do you need to keep in mind?
You may wonder how a ready meal can be kept for so long at room temperature, being natural, and without preservatives, if your homemade dishes cannot.
The answer lies in the process of conservation optimisation. Thermal sterilisation, which, without the addition of any compounds, improves the preservation of the food optimally. This is achieved by a sudden and significant increase in temperature above 100ºC and a subsequent abrupt cooling. At the time this process is carried out, and in the same sterilised environment, it is packaged in a protective atmosphere, with the trays sealed thanks to the film that protects them.
This is why HSN-ready meals are so practical. However, if you remove the film from the tray, you release the protected preservation environment and the dishes should be kept in the refrigerator and eaten as soon as possible. The preservation of the dishes remains optimal if you do not open the tray.
