A couple of weeks ago, Mike and I were trying to buy ramen at Tesco, and we couldn't find any flavours that were vegan. I learned shortly after this trip that Lidl has these tarts that are vegan, so I decided to divert to Lidl on my next shopping trip (since we have a Lidl on our way home from the Tesco we usually shop at).
So, this is what the tarts look like:
These consist of a shortcrust pastry, seedless raspberry jam, some type of cream filling, and a raspberry fondant. They're so freaking good! They also have pineapple, which aren't as good but would do in a pinch. A pack of four small tarts is 99p (or if you're lucky, they'll be a little smashed and only run you 69p).
Lidl also have packets of ramen for 18p each, and the ones I looked at were vegan. Now, I can't vouch with certainty for every flavour, but the ones that are vegan are labeled as such. Score! The chicken and barbecue beef flavours are definitely vegan, and they really hit the spot.
My dinner tonight was the chicken flavour with an extra bit of miso and some frozen peas. It was great. One of these days I'll use the noodles to make some decent ramen a la Mo.
Lidl has a few other bargains. I found organic carrots for £1, and they have a big jar of red peppers for £1.79. I mean, all of their stuff is cheap, but some of it might be worth making the trip for (especially since the trip for me is a couple of steps out of the way).

Those tarts look awesome and I love cheap ramen noodles especially the chicken flavour from Sainsbury's.
