Hi, I’m so glad that you are here!
After going vegan 18 years ago, I have loved the challenge of veganizing old family recipes – putting a healthy twist on the classics without compromising taste. Since I am a busy mother of 2 vegan children, I need meals that are quick and easy and that will also satisfy hungry growing boys. As a mother, I want to make sure that my children are getting plenty of fruits and veggies. As kids, they just care if it tastes good. Over the years, I have modified hundreds of recipes to increase nutrition yet never compromise on taste. I hope that you and your family enjoy these recipes as much as we do. 
I will only post recipes that I have made personally and perfected. My kids and family will have tested all of the recipes and given them the official thumbs up before posting. I will keep my posts short and sweet so you won't have to scroll through tons of pictures and narratives to find the actual recipe.
It is my mission is to help people transition to a healthier plant based diet without having to give up the great tasting comfort foods that they love. I want to make this process as simple as possible for you!
