Hi, we’re Shayne & Kristina
We’re the husband-and-wife team behind My Darling Vegan. I (Shayne) spend my days in the kitchen developing recipes and editing the blog, while Kristina works her magic behind the camera and helps write the stories that bring each dish to life.
What You’ll Find Here
Our goal is simple: share approachable vegan recipes that taste great and actually work in real kitchens. Everything you see here is tested at home, made with everyday ingredients, and written so you feel confident cooking it yourself.
You'll find all kinds of recipes from breakfast to dessert. I focus on using easily available and mostly whole foods and provide a base for a well-balanced, healthful lifestyle. But, every once in a while you'll find something truly decadent on the blog because life is about moderation, right?
