About VeggiElation

I am Carolina, the one-woman show behind this site, creating recipes for you from beautiful Chicago. I’ve been cooking from scratch since I was a child and never really used formal recipes (my mom taught me a lot!!).

Thanks to those early lessons, I’ve gotten used to creating new plant based recipes almost every single day. This page is my humble attempt to share what I cook in the hopes I can inspire you to eat more veggies.

Thanks to this lifestyle, I’ve stayed incredibly healthy over the years. My recipes are creative, simple, healthy (mostly), and full of flavor. I am an Agricultural Engineer (I’ve been studying plants forever!) with an MSc in International Management, a weightlifter, social butterfly, obsessed with my dog Osa, and am also that fun speaker at conferences!

I started the VeggiElation community on Instagram in 2018 and we have since grown to an awesome community of 16,000+ foodies devoted together to yummy healthy eating and cooking!! As an extension of this community I started the VeggiElation website to continue serving you with great plant based recipes that are both healthy and tasty.

I want to be the one source where passionate foodies like you can find their own unique recipes and healthy living tips. Feel free to contact me anytime.
