It's easy to get stuck in a rut of eating the same thing for breakfast every day, prioritizing comfort and convenience over variety, and Alpro collaborated with TikTok sensation and Michelin-trained chef Poppy O’Toole to inspire people to try a plant-based breakfast.
The inspiring plant-based breakfast tasting menu was informed by dinnertime tasting menus, and at the exclusive event, people got to experience dishes like Alpro almond waffle with creamy almond butter and juicy peaches or crispy curried hashbrowns topped with a creamy coconut yogurt alternative and sweet mango chutney. Event-goers got to savor the five plant-based courses for £5 (plus a small booking fee,) making the creatively reinterpreted breakfast staples accessible for just about £1 per course.
Post-event, people interested in shaking up their morning meals can find highlights from the recipe collection online.
