"I love your website. I appreciate the videos and the recipes. I am a new vegan, going cold turkey from being a bigtime meat and dairy eater to a plant based diet. I have used your site as one of my primary sources for making healthy vegan meals. Its a wonderful resource. Thank you so much. It really is helping me succeed in this goal of a healthy vegan lifestyle."

"Hello, my husband and I recently moved to a vegan diet. Your videos help me so much, we tried this one tonight (I DO NOT like black-eyed-peas) and we both liked this recipe a lot! You can do miracles if you can make those things taste good! Thanks so much!"

"Hello Heather, Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Cheryl, I am 61 and I live outside Chicago. I began a vegan life style when I turned 40 with no training. I am so glad as I begin my second season of my life to have come across your web. You are passionate about health with a beautiful balance of lightness and fun. I truly enjoy seeing the video as you create with the added educational comments. You are definitely giving people the opportunity to make informed decisions about their health by what they put into their bodies. Thank you for the empowerment! May you be blessed richly."
Cheryl, Chicago
"You've *definitely* got the best vegan recipes on Youtube. I think your subtle sense of humor is great. You are making my conversion to veganism much more enjoyable! Thank you very much."

Melissa
"Hi Heather! I'm a meat eater who loves vegetables (and is now getting to love them more and more). I discovered your site completely by accident the other day. I just made this and it's absolutely terriffic! It also happens to be the first time I've tried kale :) I'm looking forward to exploring a healthier lifestyle with you, and thank you so much!!!"
Dan, Del Rio, TX
"Thank you so much for your emails. I really like that you demonstrate how to prepare the recipes. Last night I made a batch of the Miso dressing you e-mailed. It was soooo tasty. I love that it is healthy and low fat too. I was looking for a Miso dressing and walla, than came your email. Thanks again!! (Your exercise videos have enspired me to get outside to the park and do them on the grass like you did but alas, not today, its raining here!)"
Dina, Mississauga ON
"Been looking for a more recipes with cabbage instead of soups...gonna try this during the week I love your recipes because they are so simple and not complicated and me not being a professional when it comes to cooking trust me simple is all that works for me lol being vegan has had it's challenges but you have great ideas ! Thanks so much."
Katrina
"I used this recipe to make my first apple and rhubarb crumble and it turned out amazing! It was super tasty and filling, I over cooked the fruit a little by accident so it had an unusual form, but still tasted great all the same =)"
Gracie
"I have commented on a few of your recipes before and this is yet another one I absolutely LOVE! I use this dressing to go with my homemade coleslaw (with raw cabbage, carrots, apple, onion). It works very well for this purpose and my omnivore friends and family rave about this recipe. I made this last night for my Mom's birthday and she asked to take some home. It's also gluten free if made with GF version of tamari and my Mom has Celiac disease so she really appreciated this. This is a go to dressing I also use for some pita style sandwiches. Thanks for sharing this recipe! Everyone thinks I am a terrific cook but I just follow great recipes I find from vegan blogs. :) Whoever thinks being vegan is hard just hasnt explored these blogs. :) It's been just over six months for me so far and I have never looked back."
Elaine
"Eating this right now, its really good! I used quinoa instead of rice. Next time I will definitely add whole peanuts to it! You have really inspired a once meat eater to turn vegan. I've tried a few of your'e recipes and they were all very easy and delicious. Thank you!"
Oathar
"I made this (vegan sweet potato soup) a few days ago - ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!!!!!!! I mixed up a quick batch of baked zucchini fries to go with it, was all so delicious!!! thanks for providing such a fun and easy way to make soup, jam packed with nutrients!!! definitely putting this in the rotation!"
Karen
"I have made this (vegan butternut squash soup) twice in the past week. Took it to an "End of Chemo treatment" gathering for a friend on Thursday and it was a HUGE success! Made it for the family yesterday again! I improvised on ingredients due to what I had on hand yesterday & it still came out wonderful! Thanks Heather! I can't wait to share your web-site with my step-daughter who will be having dinner with us on Sunday! She has been a vegan for some time and I know she will love it! I will be searching your site for the whole dinner on Sunday as well!"
Barbara
"Love your recipe for hummus, I am going to make this one tonight. My daughter and I have just recently gone vegan. I am learning and enjoying your videos so much. Thank you!"
Liz
"Hi Heather, this was fantastic, we ate this dish (vegan stuffed mushrooms) with a combo of the Moroccan Chickpea Stew served on top of the Vegetarian Quinoa (added some of the peanut sauce to spice it up). we are having so much fun your recipes. Thanks so much for sharing your passion with us."
Doug
"I discovered you 10 months ago with the millet-beet burgers recipe video.Although I am not a vegetarian,I find the way you combine the ingredients mostly inspired,clever and extremely tastefull.Another interesting is that your ideas stimulate and encourrage more and more variations of the initial recipe.Now this (tahini salad) dressing is really great,I also added-what else-a garlic glove.Excellent reason-along with your avocado dressing- to cheat on my great love,olive oil! thanks! Just made this dish (olive and walnut pasta) and tasted amazing, my brother who isnt a vegan also enjoyed it. Thank you so much you have some really nice recipes here. Made this (vegan butternut squash soup) yesterday and could have eaten the whole pot!!!! So very very good. I have had a lot of bloopers since trying to change my diet but have had great success with every recipe of yours. Thanks so much."
Sandi
"Hi Heather, just tried this recipe but I used spelt flour and my own tomato sauce (just onions, tomatoes, red peppers and a truck load of garlic, yum!). I slightly overdid the toppings zucchini, red onions, red peppers and cherry tomatoes (they had the most delicious fresh/sour taste, really yummie!), but I think you are familiar with the term veggie mountain :-). The result was amazing, definitely will be doing this again. Oh and thanks for getting me a new hobby, kneading. I really liked kneading a lot, it's fun! And thank you for your inspiring, easy and delicious recipes. I've never cooked so much and so healthy in all my life and what's more important, I never felt better in my life!"
Stefan
"Looks delicious, healthy as usual, and entertaining to watch. I love the healthy tid-bits that you impart on all of your videos, like some facts on the nutritional yeast you gave in this video. I am such a fan of your presentational style and since I am new to the Vegan lifestyle, it is good to see someone who promotes this healthy lifestyle without being a bit nutty, flakey, preachy, or dogmatic. God bless you and your husband and consider me a sincere fan."
Sam, Mims, FL
"I just made this today, and I am just floored as to how good it is. I didn't believe that one could use just a small amount of oil for all those veggies, but my word! Healthy, light tasting and vegan! I love your all of your recipes because they make me think outside of the box in terms of typical vegan dishes. I like that they're not soy-centric (nothing wrong with that, of course). Thank you for offering us healthy, vegan recipes that help us redefine vegan cuisine!"
Stephen, Brooklyn, NY.
"Love this dressing! So simple and easy to make. Makes anything I throw into a salad taste good. Still learning to cook for one person so this is a recipe that makes life easier when you don't want to spend too much time on what to make for dinner. I love this dressing over veggies and quinoa. A quick and yummy meal when I get home after a long day! Thanks Heather!"
Merle, Victoria BC
"I just wanted to say that I love your sites and videos. I have been trying to transition from vegetarian to vegan for a few months and with the help from you I think I can. I love watching your cooking videos and can't wait to try out some recipes. Thank you for taking the time to help so many of us =) This is exactly what I have been looking for and the type of support I have needed for so long =)"
Summer, Graham, WA
"Heather I just have to tell you how much I LOVE your website!!! It is one of the most informative and healthy sites I have yet to see!!! I am so grateful for the recipes you share and look forward to trying all of them as they are cruelty-free/vegan!!! Absolutely LOVE it!!! Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge and expertise!!!"
Dianne, Calgary, Alberta
"My husband and I had all 3 girls out for the evening. I had the ingredients on hand and needed to feed my hard working hubby...so I gave this a try. It was the most fun I`d had cooking in a long time. How nice to have someone demonstrate first! The meal was fabulous, my husband, who doesn`t even like zucchini ate it up and enjoyed it. PS. I was just diagnosed with high blood pressure, and was glad to see you recommend using sea salt, the other is too overly processed and should be avoided like the plague. Keep up the good work!"
Bruce Mines, Ontario
"I have been wanting to email you, so this is the perfect opportunity to tell you how much I LOVE your website!!! The videos are a great addition to each recipe and I feel like I am right there in the kitchen with you. I have been viewing your website/videos for about 4 months and enjoy everything about them. You are friendly, fun loving, informative, thorough and a great teacher. I followed you and Phil thru Europe and that was so much fun. I especially enjoyed the videos of the places you were visiting that Phil shot. You make such a cute couple :) I have been a vegan since August. I actually started out being a raw food vegan for about 2 months, but my body told me something was missing. So, switched to 50% raw vegan and 50% regular vegan and feel better now."
Kim, Dade City, Florida
"Just wanted to let you know that you've made one more person happy with your site :) I'm somewhat of a vegan blog addict, but I feel that yours really stands out. I love the combination of healthy and tasty recipes, handy instruction videos and especially the nutritional info. Thanks for the inspiration!"
Kristel, Netherlands
"I would like to congratulate you on this fantastic website that both you and your husband have created. I have tried several recipes and they are really nice. I suffer from a rare disease, TMAU, which treatment consists of basically a vegan diet and even though at the beginning this was devastating, it´s websites like yours that are really helpful and offer wonderful ideas on what to eat."
Natalia Clarke, Bristol, UK
"Hi Heather! My name is Vanessa. I am delighted to find your healthy vegan cooking channel!! I made the eggplant, lemon capers salad with a side of sweet potato (without the salad) but seasoned as per your recipe. It was fantastic, both my husband and I enjoyed it very much. I am excited to make some more of your recipes! They are very tasty AND gorgeously practical, and best of all...healthy!! Thank you so much for what you are doing with this channel...also I love the fact that you are on a mission to do something good in the world, and the importance of feeding the body properly, while so important for full health on all levels of being, is so often overlooked...many many blessings to you and your husband and family and please! keep the wonderful recipes coming, sister!! :)"

"I just became a vegan on Saturday and just found ur website today (Tuesday) and i was there for a good 2 or so hours watching videos lol Im so excited to try almost all ur recipes but theres so many i dont know which to start with hahaa...Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to make these videos and ur website is awesome. Much appreciated :)"
Roy, San Antonio, Texas
"You have a lot of easy INEXPENSIVE healthy recipes. I tried the spaghetti and "meat balls".....loved the seasoning in it. I just became vegan a month ago and appreciate your recipes and health advice :-) Thanks!! I really appreciate that you're doing this. There's a lot of stereo types and misinformation out there about veganism. This totally proves how healthy, delicious, and inexpensive it can be :-) I really like the fact you use a lot of wholefoods on your recipes. I know I can go try to make any recipe vegan but appreciate the awareness on food we choose. So thanks again!"
Juanita, Dallas, Texas
"Dear Heather, I came upon your cooking show on youtube and am so thankful that you share your ideas and recipes with the public. I am 35 and just begining the process of going vegan. I have been eating a standard American diet my entire life (SAD isn't it - ha ha) and after seeing both of my parents battle cancer in the last 2 years am ready to make a lifestyle change. I must admit I am having a harder time than I thought I would. Any words of wisdom - you seem to have so many - would be greatly appreciated. Also, do you take supplements and if so what? I have read so many contradictory statements about vitamins I am confused. Lastly, does Phil ever come on the cooking show. You mention him so often, i would love to put a face with the name. Thank you for your time, advice and easy healthy recipes. Having your show has been instrumental in answering my first question when considering a vegan diet - what do vegan eat? Much appreciation! I really appreciate your advice. Watching your show has made me want to be not just a vegan but a healthy vegan. Blessings to you and yours."
April
"Thank you for all your videos. your recipes are appetizing, versatile and so easy to follow! Any dessert recipes coming up in the future? I'd love a vegan blueberry pie recipe, or any vegan pie for that matter mmm"
Clara, NYC
"Thanks Heather. The vegan french toast looks great. To date, I have really enjoyed the simplicity of your cooking and it has given me a lot of guidance, particularly in terms of nutritional balance. I am a meat eater with vegan sympathies, so I now cook vegan/vegetarian for myself and eat what people cook for me when out. Your website and the 7 day challenge (which I haven't started yet) has given me lots of good information so I can make informed choices about balanced eating. Thanks for all your hard work, it's great."
Jacqui, Sydney, Australia
"I'm so pleased to find easy vegan cooking. I'm a busy wife, mother, full-time teacher, and M.Ed. student. The resource I don't have is time. Your website will really help us move toward a healthier and more responsible lifestyle. I thank you wholeheartedly for sharing your expertise with the world. I could not lead my family in this direction without you!"
