THERE SHE GLOWS AGAIN
Oh She Glows blogger Angela Liddon talks about food, health, and her second cookbook
After struggling with an eating disorder for over a decade, Angela Liddon set up a blog, to spread the word about her journey to health, and the powerful transformation that food can make in our lives. In the years since starting ohsheglows.com, the blogger has won awards for her work, attracted millions of readers every month, and inspired countless people with her positivity and recipes.
Congratulations on your newest book – as well as being full of delicious recipes, it is beautiful. As well as sharing the health benefits of a plant-based diet, are you also keen to show how your lifestyle can be really vibrant and trendy?
I find one of the most widely spread and persistent misconceptions about plantbased diets is the idea that meals are inherently ‘restrictive’ or ‘boring’. And I completely get it, because I used to think that too. But in fact the truth is the exact opposite. I truly believe my diet has much more variety now than it ever did when I was an omnivore, because a plant-based diet forced me to get creative in the kitchen and experiment with newto- me foods. Since starting my blog in 2008, I’ve strived to share my passion for plant-based eating by putting delicious, flavourful, exciting recipes out into the world. When readers write in telling me one of my dishes has won over even the most die-hard meat lover in their family, I smile ear to ear.
