Ginsters new bakes- Mac and Cheese and vegan bombay potato spinach review

Ginsters are famous for Cornish Pasties and Steak slices, it used to be enough but to stay in the game they have come up with all these new bakes as well as vegetarian options.

The new bakes are: Cajun Spiced Chicken Bake, Mac & Cheese Bake, Philly Cheese Steak Bake and Harissa Spiced Chicken Bake.

As a Mac and Cheese fan, the Mac and Cheese had to be my first choice.

I heated it in the microwave for 1 minute and then put it in a halogen oven to get the pastry crisp and flakey.

I was quite surprised I liked it.

It wasn't really cheesy but you can really taste that macaroni.

When you cook macaroni, you have this really distinct mac smell and taste and it was exactly that followed by a slightly cheesy taste from the sauce.

Tried the bombay potato spinach as well but I found it too fiery for my palate otherwise it would have been ok.

Also for Christmas, they are doing the Festive Chicken & Stuffing Slice which I really want to try as well.
