Hi and welcome to The Seasoned Vegan!
I’m Becky, a dog obsessed nutrition nerd and lover of all things simple. I became a vegetarian in my twenties but my cooking skills were limited to spaghetti noodles and chocolate chip cookies. Out of sheer hunger I began to experiment in the kitchen, eventually acquiring enough skills to raise five children on a vegetarian diet. Those were mighty busy times and I relied on eggs and dairy products to produce quick meals that (mostly) everyone would eat. When, at age 17, my middle daughter decided to become vegan, I felt like I was starting over as a cook. If there were no eggs and no cheese, there might be no dinner! I began to school myself on the basics of vegan cooking and discovered the secret to remaining vegan: SIMPLICITY!
I’m here for you, whether you’re a fledgling or an ace, to help you discover simple vegan cooking at its best.

A Little More About Me…
I’m a midwestern born and bred gal, but love visiting the Pacific Northwest where two of my adult children live.
I’ve had a number of jobs over the years: accountant (not really my thing), mom (more of a volunteer job), organic farmer (harder than you think), small business owner, school cook, and group home staff for individuals with developmental disabilities.
I’m a mom to five biological children, but have been known to take in “strays”. I love them all!
Speaking of strays, there have been many of those in canine form over the years. Currently, I’m a dog mom to three big sweet souls.
I’ve been married to the same man for 39 years, and he still keeps me laughing (though sometimes not intentionally:).
I love a good, strong cup of coffee.
My favorite meal is that vegan one that comes together quickly from ingredients I have on hand and still tastes amazing!
