    Hi, I am Meesha, the recipe developer, writer, and photographer behind this blog My Plantiful Cooking.

    Where this all started...

    Growing up as a Malaysian Chinese, I am really fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience different cuisine from almost all around the world since young. But it does not stop there. I am super passionate about cooking at a very young age and had spent countless hours helping my mom out in the kitchen!

    Since going vegan 4 years ago, my biggest joy is to experiment in the kitchen to veganise some of my childhood favorite dishes! I primarily focus on creating healthy, plant-powered recipes without compromising on taste.

    Recipes you will find on My Plantiful Cooking

    As a foodie myself, you will find recipes that are flavorful and bold in flavors, but with a healthier twist. Expect to find everything from Chinese-inspired sweet and sour chickpeas to western foods like this vegan marinara sauce. Most of them are also incredibly easy to make, and only requires a handful of easily accessible ingredients.

    2 bowls containing chickpeas and rice. There is a skillet and chopped scallions in the background.

    Most of the recipes here can be made gluten-free, sugar-free, and oil-free, and I had made sure to always include a note on how to do so, as well as a list of substitutions that can be made to that particular recipe.

    To make sure that you have success recreating my recipes, I always include detailed step-by-step instructions, as well as process shots to guide you along the way. I also include a "commonly asked questions" section and try to answer some questions you might have about that particular recipe!

    My goal is to make plant-based cooking more approachable and to prove that healthy, wholesome meals can also be delicious and flavorful at the same time.

    Some fun facts about me

    • Other than food and cooking, I am also super passionate about nutrition! I am currently pursuing my Bs in dietetics, and aspire to be a certified dietitian after I graduate.
    • Fitness is also a huge part of my life. I especially love weightlifting, and am a NASM certified personal trainer.
    • I am a huge bookworm since I was a kid. Thriller, mystery, and romance are my top genre.
    • English is my second language. Not surprisingly, my native tongue is Chinese.
    • There are some foods which I can't tolerant, and bitter gourd being one of them. No offence, but I don't understand why some people swear by this bitter-tasting veg!
    • None of my immediate family members are vegan, but they do enjoy plant-based meal from time to time.
