About Kathy Patalsky

Thanks for visiting Healthy. Happy. Life.

I hope to inspire you to get in the kitchen and embrace your inner vegan chef. And really, my website isn't just for vegans - it's for everyone. Adding even a few plant-based meals a week to your diet is a great place to start.

I hope you'll experiment with my recipes and learn to love vegan cooking and living just as much as I do!

I also write for Babble.com's Family Kitchen blog.

Aside form being an Internet Content Producer in the Culinary Sector, I also work as a freelance food photographer and vegan recipe developer. My work has been published in VegNews, Zooey Magazine and several online outlets. Please contact me if you are interested in working with me.
