I love to cook vegan, seasonal, plant-based dishes. For me, cooking is fun and I particularly love a challenge! I’ve always loved to cook, but it wasn’t until I became vegan that I became really excited about creating recipes. I realised that the old cooking ‘rules’ were not rules at all and you can be as creative and imaginative with food as you like; I’m a true veg lover and I’m known for trying to ‘veganise’ anything and everything 🌱
