Flavorful Dishes For All Tastes We love creating new dishes that dazzle our taste buds, almost as much as we love surprising others when we tell them that dish doesn't have any meat or dairy! Because all of our tastes are a little (or a lot) different, we encourage you to flavor anything you can to your own taste preference. These recipes are meant to be a guide on how to create plant dishes you will love, but we want you to make them your own! Feel free to share your opinions on our up-and-coming user forum! What do you want to make? Breakfast Lunch Dinner Desserts Snacks Seasonal Dishes Coming Soon! Coming Soon!

Meet Bryce and Destiny McLaren Namaste From humble beginnings, we have worked hard in our careers, raising a family, and helping give back to our community whenever we can, despite physical limitations and disabilities that we had to fight daily to overcome. The hardest part we encountered with being different was a lack of understanding and acceptance, not just for the phsyical issues presented with being low vision or suffering from severe anxiety, depression, or military-related PTSD, but for a lack of acceptance or understanding. As our children moved away, the extra time and space opened new opportunities for us to reconnect with ourselves, each other, and expand our consciousness even further! During this process, we came to realize that we would rather earn less to do what we love, prompting us to gather up some of our past work and adding to it, all while building this website. ​ We hope you enjoy the information here and that it helps and inspires you as much it has us! ​ Mission People from all over the world struggle to find their place, their voice, and a sense of belonging within an increasing societal gap where religion once filled, in bringing communities closer together. How people interact and commune with one another is no longer defined by your religion, political affiliation, social status, class, or anything else for that matter...at least, it doesn't have to! Vision O ur hope is to empower and bring people together by providing useful information, encouragement, and support for all those who seek it, while offering a safe space to learn and explore alongside like-minded people from all around the world!
