The Vegan Holiday

I am on a mission to show you that a plant-based diet is easy, satisfying, and delicious! .

Meet the Girl

“When I was 5 I decided eating animals wasn’t for me. I have spent a lifetime figuring out why it was the best decision I’ve ever made, even after all the push back (a five year old turning vegetarian wasn’t typical in the 80’s!). I am ready to share all the ‘whys’, ‘hows’, and help I can! Being vegan isn’t a trend, it’s a way of life, and I want to be the support to others I wish I had when I started,”

You are probably here because you are curious who I am and what I am trying to accomplish with The Vegan Holiday. Hi, I am Lana and I haven’t eaten meat since I was five years old. I am a certified vegan nutritionist and vegan chef  exploring the world and seeing how it “does vegan”.  I did the soul work to figure out what I can do to help others experience an easy and satisfying way to become and stay vegan, and you happened to stumble upon it. Welcome!

Anyone can be vegan. I want you to not “miss the meat” while feeling excited about your next meal and most of all I want you to reap the substantial benefits of getting rid of eggs, dairy and meat from your diet so you can live a long healthy life! 

I am here to share everything I know about keeping a vegan pantry, how to make staples, how to cook meals picky-eaters like and how to balance your day with delicious vegan food. I remember the very first day I tried a vegan burger, it was in 1994! The world has changed so much and there is so much available today to make it easier and more convenient than I could have ever imagined!

If you need one-on-one help becoming vegan or have specific goals, you can schedule a free 30 minute one-on-one here.

What a find! Clearly marked vegan options that were all very, very good. The lemon seitan dish was great, the bruschetta was flavorful and the pasta was the standout - those yellow tomatoes were bursting with delicious.

Perhaps the simplest thing on the menu at Margo’s, but also my favorite and pairs perfect with my other favorite, the lavender tahini latte.
