With supermarket aisles now laden with rainbows of plant-based foods, and our favourite restaurants offering an array of fun and delicious dishes, enjoying a vegan diet has never been easier.

Native to all tropical regions of the world, the coconut tree is known as “the tree of life” and it’s not hard to see why.

Almost every part of the tree and its fruit can be used in some way, providing food, fuel, cosmetics, folk medicine and building materials, among many other things.

Here at Olivado, we use the fruit to make three distinct types of cooking oil, each with their own specific uses.

With more and more people choosing the vegetarian lifestyle, it’s essential for restaurants, cafes and food stores to offer meat-free options.

In that spirit, we’ve put together a delicious 3-course meal suitable for vegetarians but loved by everyone!
