Welcome to our little corner of the internet focused on vegetarian, vegan and mushroom cuisine! We started this site to share our passion for cooking delicious, wholesome plant-based meals using fresh produce and mushrooms.
Our Story
We’re Karen and Lyndon, a couple who went vegetarian together 7 years ago. Karen was always vegetarian but Lyndon was not (and still sometimes isn’t). Transitioning away from meat was a big change for Lyndon, but he quickly found a whole new world of flavorful recipes. We especially love with cooking with mushrooms and experimenting with meat substitutes. After much trial and error in the kitchen, we compiled our very best veggie, vegan and mushroom creations to share with others.
What began as a personal passion project soon transformed into this website. We hoped to inspire fellow vegetarians, vegans, and mushroom lovers through recipes, tips, and guidance. To our delight, the site steadily grew and we heard from readers around the globe. We added more recipes, collaborated with fellow plant-based bloggers, and worked to build an inclusive, inspiring community.
Now in our third year, this website has become our happy place to share our love of vegetarian cuisine. We feel thrilled each time a new reader discovers us or a recipe brings joy to your kitchen. This website combines our creative outlet with the ability to hopefully make eating more plants just a little bit easier for you. We can’t wait to see where the journey leads!
Our Values
At our core, this website exists to:
- Share the joy of plant-based eating through easy, delicious recipes
- Highlight the incredible versatility of mushrooms and meat alternatives
- Offer tips to make any kitchen more veggie-friendly
- Foster an inclusive space for all who love vegetarian food as much as we do
- Inspire you to add more plants to your plate
We aim to provide recipes for all dietary needs, skill levels, and tastes. Whether you’re a vegetarian veteran or just veggie-curious, our recipes celebrate the flavors of fresh, nourishing ingredients.
The Future
As we look to the future, we want to expand our recipe collection with even more globally inspired dishes. We also hope to showcase more voices and perspectives from fellow plant-based cooks. Building an even more robust community is our top priority.
From humble origins to a thriving website, this has been an exciting journey so far. We feel so grateful to have you, our treasured reader, along for the ride. Our about us page may change over the years, but our passion for plant-based food and community never will.
Happy cooking!
Sincerely,
Karen & Lyndon
