Hey there, I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Jenny Kate, and this is the story behind Plant-Based Southerner.
The Mission of Plant-Based Southerner
You might be wondering what this corner of the internet is all about. My “why” for creating this site is simple: I want to teach you about the power of plant-based cooking and nutrition.
This site is for anyone and everyone who wants to learn about plant-based eating. Whether you’ve been eating this way for years or you’re just starting to explore a healthier lifestyle, you are welcome here. My goal is to demystify the process and show you how vibrant, delicious, and easy it can be to embrace more plants, all while celebrating the Southern flavors we know and love. I truly believe that what we eat is a cornerstone of our health, and I’m here to help you create a lifestyle that is yummy, affordable and fun.
Meet Our Cheerful Guide!
To help me on this mission, I have a cheerful sidekick I’d love for you to meet: Sunnie!
Sunnie represents the bright, positive, and sunny side of Southern cooking. When you see Sunnie peeking around the corner of a page, think of it as a little ray of encouragement. Sunnie is our official mascot, here to remind us that healthy eating should be a joyful and uplifting experience. Sunnie is also the inspiration for our community members, who we lovingly call our ‘Sunnies’!
