About

Welcome to Veganise This! My name is Mel and I'm another food obsessed vegan blogger that loves cooking and writing up my adaptations of recipes as well as a few of my own original concoctions.
   
Once upon a time I was a pretty boring cook as well as fairly conservative when dining out. Giving up meat for ethical reasons changed all of that and it didn't take long for me to progress from a hesitant vegetarian to an adventurous vegan. I have written about my progression from omnivore to vegetarian to vegan previously; click here if you are interested in reading my transition story.

When I ditched meat from my diet, I became more experimental in the kitchen and discovered the blogging world. I fell in love with reading blogs and tried out recipes occasionally but at the time I never thought that I would eventually start my own.

Shortly after going vegan I made the decision to give blogging a try and started this little space. It has been a lot of fun and a wonderful environment to engage with other like-minded people in what can feel like an isolating world at times. For the initial six months I struggled to take photos that I am proud of and eventually upgraded my camera in July 2011. When I look back at my earlier posts I cringe at how bad some of my food looks but it also makes me relieved that I have progressed and aim to develop my photography further.     

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog. If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email, I would love to hear from you.
