Welcome to Plant Based Palate!

Whether you’re new or have been around for a while, I’m thrilled you’re here.

On this website, you’ll find vegan recipes that are easy to make and even easier to eat. I focus on family-friendly comfort foods but also share healthier recipes like lentil soup.


About Me

Hi, I’m Jenny, the creator of Plant Based Palate. I started this blog in 2022 when my youngest son was just 4 year’s old. I almost went back to work as a nurse, but instead, I bought a camera off Craigslist and started this blog!

I felt the need to be home with my son, plus I never liked being a nurse, to be honest. And I absolutely LOVE creating vegan recipes. I also discovered how much I enjoy photography and taking pictures of my food.

I have to pinch myself most days that this is what I get to do for a job. My husband and I live in the Portland, Oregon area with our kids, several cats, and a couple of dogs.


What kind of recipes will you find here?

Here you will find tasty recipes with no meat, dairy, or eggs. Everyone is welcome, whether you are looking for allergy-friendly baked goods or vegan dinners. I’m so happy you’re here!

The recipes are as simple as possible, often 30-minutes-or-less, 1-bowl, and minimal ingredients. In other words, I don’t like a lot of fuss in the kitchen!


Commonly Asked Questions

Are all the recipes gluten-free?

Not all of the recipes on Plant Based Palate are gluten-free, but many are. You can find them all here.

Are the recipes hard to make?

My goal is to create recipes that are incredibly delicious with the least amount of work! The recipes you will find at Plant Based Palate are doable, simple, and uncomplicated. Occasionally, you will find a more difficult recipe like Vegan Choux Pastry, but those are pretty rare.

Will my friends and family enjoy these recipes?

Yes! That is my ultimate goal. Everyone can enjoy plant-based food! Even if you don’t always eat plant-based or you do but your family does not, everyone will enjoy the recipes here. Especially with the desserts, no one will GUESS they are made without eggs or dairy.

I’m not here to judge; all kinds of eaters are completely welcome here. I just love plant-based food and want to share it with you!

Will my kids enjoy these recipes?

I don’t know your kid personally, so I can’t guarantee they will like every recipe, but I do make a lot of kid-friendly recipes, so hopefully you will find some that they like! I have a couple of very picky kids myself, but they like almost everything on the blog.
