Description
I’ve noticed how food content on social media has started to veer towards viral food combinations…but making a cake out of mushed up oreos or wraps out of cottage cheese isn’t exactly what you want for dinner.
Creating reliable and exciting plant-based recipes that you’ll use again and again takes a lot of skill and a lot of passion.
So I am so excited to be talking with Nisha Vora, the lawyer turned YouTube and food blog sensation behind Rainbow Plant Life, who has an incredible new cookbook out called Big Vegan Flavour.
I got to sit down with Nisha to talk about her new book as well as her life as a content creator - which is not always what people imagine it to be. Nisha shares more about why she chose to leave law for a career in food as well as a bit about her creative process and how she navigates the never ending cycle of content creation. And of course, we chat about how she learned to make flavourful food she is excited to eat and how you can too!

As a digestive health dietitian, time and time again, I seem to conveniently ignore the fact that the liver is considered part of the digestive system…and this episode is my attempt to correct that glaring oversight!

If there is one diet we talk about most in nutrition, it’s the Mediterranean diet. Year after year, it gets ranked as one of the “best diets” in the world (what the heck does that even mean?!?) but as a registered dietitian, I think there is a lot that goes unsaid about this way of...
