Cassie Young lives with her husband in British Columbia and ran a blog, Veggie Meal Plans. "I'm a home cook who enjoys preparing uncomplicated meals that are delicious, healthy and satisfying!"

Recently they decided to take the Veggie Challenge. Not only did they successfully complete the Challenge by going vegan for a week, but Cassie posted a recipe and photo of every dinner she made. She says, "I've learned a lot this past week from the emails and from your great web site! We both did well, had no problem with it, and feel great about our choice. We've decided to continue on!  My participation in the Challenge has also inspired a few of my friends to give it a try, which makes me very happy."

Update: Unfortunately their website Veggie Meal Plans is no longer active and these recipes are not available.
