Bio
If you had told me 5 years ago that I was going to become a vegan and gluten-free health nut who writes a recipe blog, I would have laughed!
I mean, I have always been very interested in healthy active living but I didn't think the sacrifice was possible. After my grade 10 food and nutrition class I developed a hunger to learn more about nutrition and the effects it has on our health. Unlike most teens I started reading articles and buying books about the global epidemic our world is facing (obesity) and the power of food. The more I learned the more I thrived. There was no stopping this girl! As a kind and gentle soul who has always loved animals I started exploring different lifestyles (vegan in particular). I could not believe that I didn't consider it sooner! The food industry and cruelty towards animals disgusts me. Why was I allowed to have pets in my home yet go and eat other animals??
I embarked on my vegan journey 3 years ago and I have never been happier! I feel happy, kind, compassionate, at peace, and like I'm making a difference!! Do you??
