"I was diagnosed with high cholesterol at 35 and was told I needed to go on medication immediately. I asked my doctor for 6 months to try diet changes first. I found The Plant Plate and started cooking your dinners exclusively. Not only did I lose 15 pounds without feeling hungry, but my cholesterol dropped by 40 points. My doctor was stunned. The Cashew Alfredo is a staple in my house now!"
"As a mother of three boys, trying to get them to eat vegetables used to end in tears (usually mine). Your blog changed my approach completely. The 'Hidden Veggie Mac & Cheese' recipe where you blend butternut squash into the sauce is genius. My kids devour it and ask for seconds. Thank you for making healthy cooking accessible for tired, busy parents."
"I am not a vegan. I still eat meat occasionally when I go out to restaurants. But your website convinced me that eating plants doesn't mean just eating a boring side salad. The flavors in your coconut curry lentils are so deep and complex. Cooking your recipes has actually made me a much better, more creative home chef. Keep the amazing content coming!"
