Beans are an everyday part of my life. There is either a pot of beans boiling on the stove or a bowl of beans soaking. They are a staple in my pantry and enjoy trying varieties and recipes every week. It's fun to mix it up and rotate my beans as well as make a big batch at a time.

In my life, and in my career, I have had the amazing opportunity to travel the world, and as a vegan, I am very grateful. I have experienced many new and exciting cuisines I may have not discovered if I hadn’t travelled as extensively as I have. Delicious, deep and rich experiences. There is always something to eat out there in this vast cultural world and I’ve got some tips for you.
