Todays conversation is all about easy, healthy, flavoursome food that’s better for the planet, with plant-based meal box delivery service VegMeUp.
Founder Jimmy Van Der Linden worked as a professional chef for over 17 years before a particular book – written by one of my favourite repeat Healthifcation guests – led him to challenge his assumptions about food and introduce more plant-based deliciousness into his diet.
Via VegMeUp Jimmy now share his expertise with everyday Australian’s so they can become chefs in their own homes. Currently servicing the Melbourne and Sydney regions, VegMeUp shares easy recipes with sustainable ingredients that people can make from the comfort of their own homes.
They encourage not only vegans but especially omnivorous to have a couple of plant-based meals a week. I feel like this might be a perfect little treat to order for your veg curious loved ones?
It removes the “too hard!” excuse and eliminates the “but it’s boring or bland!” complaint. Let’s say, this is leading with deliciousness the simple and easy way!
- Jimmy worked as a professional chef for over 17 years in the Netherlands: what led him to challenge his assumptions about food and introduce more plant-based foods into his diet?
- Did Jimmy have any misconceptions or hesitations so far as the deliciousness of plant-based?
- Leading with delicious food is certainly an effective strategy. What are some other tips on how to encourage others to eat more plant-based with compassion and no judgement?
- VegMeUp has over 100 super tasty 100% vegan recipes, with more being developed on a regular base. What are some customer favourites and, is there anything that was especially hard to make work as plant-based?
- VegMeUp strives to make sustainability a core part of his meal-kit service, and want to be Australia’s leading zero-waste meal-kit service.
- The challenges involved in creating and scaling a 100% vegan meal-kit business.
