Lisa gave me pointers and advice about how to create a balanced plant-based diet. I am not vegan or vegetarian but from time to time I feel the need to reduce or temporarily eliminate meat and other animal-based products from my diet. In the past, switching to a vegetarian diet had often resulted in digestive problems, boredom and even hunger. Lisa showed me how to prepare and make amazing smoothies and a variety of other deliciously satisfying foods. Her capacity to respect my beliefs whilst still remaining passionate and open about her own, made it easier for me to embrace this new way of cooking, preparing, thinking and being in the world.
