Breakfast and Dinner Are Sorted With Soy Milk!

We’re all concerned about the environment and one great step that many people are taking is swapping their dairy milk coffee order for a drink containing plant based milk. With the wide variety of non-dairy alternatives available — from oat to almond milk — it’s no surprise that coffee addicts are contributing to the rapid growth of the plant based milk market.

However, it’s not only your morning coffee that can benefit from the substitution of a non-dairy alternative. Soy milk is a fantastic product that can be added to all of your favourite recipes, lending a sweet, creamy flavour and plenty of essential vitamins and minerals.

We’ve put together two recipes — one for breakfast and one for dinner — to show the awesome power of soy milk.

Many of our favourite breakfast foods use milk as a base. Soy milk can be easily substituted for regular dairy milk in all situations, whether you are enjoying a bowl of cereal or making your favourite smoothie recipe.
