She’s a self-taught cook, food writer and teacher who grew up as an omnivore but has been vegetarian and then vegan for over half her life and spent the last 14 years being the food person for a Bristol-based national vegan charity. She’s cooked it all – global cuisine, street food, raw, wholefood, macrobiotic, clean and dirty – along with vegan versions of the kind of comfort food her northern family used to make!
