Liz Douglas is a home cook, new mum and the person behind the easy, familiar plant-based recipes of Glow Diaries.

As someone who had always loved food and liked cooking, when Liz became vegan, the challenge of recreating old favourite meals was exciting. She was curious, inspired and started sharing her new favourite hobby on Instagram to prove that plant-based food could be delicious, familiar, and filling.

It seems Liz jumped straight to that most effective of strategies… lead first with deliciousness, however there were and are struggles which she shares today. Liz’s warm, genuine approach is infectious. Her recipes look delectable and I loved this conversation.

Get ready to enjoy some Easy Plant-based Recipes and so much more, with Liz Douglas of Glow Diaries.

In this conversation we cover:

• Liz’s personal journey to adopting a plant-based lifestyle.
• Beyond food, Liz is passionate about helping people get inspired to glow from the inside out. What are some of her most impactful habits / practices?
• What Liz wish she knew prior to becoming vegan / learnings to make the journey easier for others.
• Once Liz went vegan, the challenge of recreating old favourite meals was exciting. How can we focus on the fun, the curiosity and abundance in plant-based?
• Practical tips for meal prep.
• Advice for the non-kitchen-loving vegan wanting to up their cooking game and encourage their family to eat plant-based.
• Liz used to work as a food buyer and product developer for some of the world’s largest retailers. Does she have valuable insights that would help vegan products break into the market and succeed?
• Liz has a cookbook coming next year and I’m here for it!

What a warm and dare I say cosy conversation. Liz’s energy makes me want to cook her food!

If you can relate please check her out online and you will see as this goes live she has just started sharing 100 days of recipes. It starts STRONG with the viral La Scala Chopped Salad, made plant-based of course.

With crunchy chickpeas for protein, chewy sun-dried tomatoes instead of salami and pumpkin seed parmesan for a cheesy richness this recipe is an absolute winner!
