About Me

I'm a veggie loving Texas gal without the Texas twang. I originally grew up in west Texas with my wonderful and numerously large Mexican-American family but currently I live in central Texas! I love living here and I love being on this eye-opening food journey! You might think living in "cattle country" makes it difficult to live this way, but you'd be surprised. Trust me, I still eat very well.  And the fact that I love to cook definitely helps.


I enjoy searching for more ways to get involved in the Texas veggie scene; whether it's hanging out with like-minded eaters, finding veg-friendly restaurants or activities, or creating new recipes at home to share with family and friends.

I love this veggie life! It's made me a happier, more energetic, and a more compassionate person.
