People often wonder how they'll get enough protein on a vegetarian or vegan diet, especially since meat is such a concentrated source (fun fact: partly because animals eat lots of plants!). At its simplest, protein is made up of amino acids—the building blocks your body uses to grow and repair cells. You need some, but we’ve also been led to believe we need SO much more protein then we actually do.

The good news is, your body can get all the protein it needs on a plant-based diet. First, from the veggies themselves. Then also from all the delicious beans, lentils, tofu, quinoa, nuts, and seeds—the list is endless.

Nope! While all the recipes are written as vegan, you can totally customize them to fit you and your family—add dairy or fish or meat if you’d like. The recipes are veggie-forward, meaning the vegetables and fresh ingredients are the real stars of the show. Everything else is just delicious backup. 😊

Great! Welcome! The recipes are beginner-friendly, and I post step-by-step videos for each weekly meal. I walk you through the basics with quick tutorials, especially focused on cooking a variety of veggies, plant-based proteins, and grains. Whether you're just starting out or brushing up on skills, you’ll feel right at home.

So much more than just recipes! Along with your weekly meal plan and shopping list, you’ll get:

• Cooking videos where I walk you through each recipe step-by-step

• Access to the blog, which offers deeper dives into topics from the Monday Wellness Round-Ups

• You’ll have direct access to me to ask questions, get tips, or just say hi.

• 50% off a cooking class

• A growing Guide for Cooking with Less Stress (including pantry basics) - and updated chapters each month.

It’s all designed to help you feel more confident, creative, and inspired in the kitchen.

I start with the foundation of a tried-and-true recipe, often drawing inspiration from sources like Love & Lemons, Forks Over Knives, and Plant Strong. From there, I make adjustments to simplify the process and enhance the flavor. My goal is always to add more veggies—preferably in-season—and tweak the recipe to ensure it’s both nutritious and a hit with my family. Each recipe is carefully crafted to be easier, more delicious, and veggie-packed!

Yes! Each recipe includes options for making it gluten-free and nut-free, so you can easily customize them to fit your dietary needs.

The recipes pull from a wide variety of cuisines—think Indian, Mexican, Thai, American, Italian, and more. I love bold, vibrant flavors. All recipes are naturally non-dairy, and I include gluten- and nut-free alternatives, plus dairy options, so you can easily customize them to fit your needs.
