New to plant-based?
Plant-based means just that: focus on plants being the base of what you're eating. But it also means eating real food, little to no refined sugar, processed food, or convenience foods. Around here, doesn't have to mean exclusively vegan - you can leave the labels at the door! Why? Because everyone could benefit from eating more plants, more whole foods, and cooking more meals at home, no diet identity necessary.
While Lauren doesn't personally advocate for, prepare, or consume any animal products, she does recognize that we are all on an individual journey toward a plant-based future. She hopes that everyone will join her at the fully plant-based party (because we serve the best food!!)
An open and positive mindset is absolutely essential for cooking healthy meals with ease. From there, your choices can get easier, and with practice they'll become routine, and eventually the vibrantly colored foods will be so exciting, they'll make you dance with pleasure and joy.
At least that's how you'll find Lauren if you walk into her kitchen!
