Green Goddess Summer Pasta

 

Hi! I’m Sarah.

(a.k.a. The Plant Based Ginger)

I’ve been plant-based for over 20 years, and nothing makes me happier than getting people to rethink veggies. For me, food is creativity, connection, and a little bit of kitchen magic. Whether it’s turning zucchini into crispy fries, chickpeas into dreamy hummus, or filling your plate with bold, colorful plants, my goal is simple: help you fall in love with veggies, one delicious bite at a time.

Let’s connect @plant.based.ginger
