And I'm an author and

educator dedicated to empowering people to make informed food choices,

to debunking myths about veganism, to being a voice for animals,

and to giving people the tools and resources they need to live according to their own values of compassion and wellness.

I'm the author of The Joy of vegan Baking, The Vegan Table, Color Me Vegan,

Vegan Me Vegan's Daily Companion, and the 30-day vegan challenge.

You can learn more about who I am and what I do by visiting my website Compassionate Cook.com, and you can

check out the 30-day vegan challenge online program at 30 Day Vegan Challenge.com.

A lot of kind of inspirational, hopefully, quotes and blurbs that people can easily
