Welcome to Simple Vegan Blog!
We're Iosune and Alberto, the couple behind this blog. We started Simple Vegan Blog back in 2014 to make plant-based cooking easy, affordable, and full of flavor for everyone - whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or just trying to eat more plant-based meals.
Here you'll find approachable vegan recipes, step-by-step cooking tips, and helpful resources to make everyday meals simpler and more enjoyable. All our recipes are tested in our kitchen in Spain, where we focus on using real, everyday ingredients you can find anywhere.
After more than a decade of creating plant-based recipes and connecting with readers around the world, our goal is to show that vegan cooking can be fun, satisfying, and totally doable for everyone.
Our story
I (Iosune) grew up in a family full of amazing cooks. My grandmother loved preparing meals for our big family, and my aunt owned an award-winning restaurant. My mom, on the other hand, wasn't very into cooking - so from a young age, I took over the kitchen. I've always been a foodie at heart, curious about flavors and how food brings people together.
My grandfather was mostly vegetarian and very health-conscious, which inspired my early interest in nutrition. That curiosity eventually led me to explore a plant-based lifestyle. When I realized it could also be a kinder choice for animals and the planet, I knew it was the right path for me. Alberto and I made the switch to a plant-based diet in 2013, and it completely changed how we saw food.
Back then, there wasn't much information available in Spanish, and most vegan recipes felt complicated or used hard-to-find ingredients. So we decided to start Danza de Fogones, which has grown into one of the top vegan food blogs in the Spanish-speaking world.
A year later, in 2014, we launched Simple Vegan Blog to share our recipes and experiences in English, hoping to reach more people around the world. Neither of us had any idea how a blog or a camera worked at the time, but we jumped in, learned along the way, and never looked back.
Our mission and values
At Simple Vegan Blog, our mission is to make plant-based cooking approachable, enjoyable, and accessible to everyone. We believe eating vegan doesn't have to be complicated - it can be simple, budget-friendly, and full of flavor.
Our goal is to be your go-to source for everyday plant-based recipes. From quick weeknight dinners to festive holiday dishes, we share easy, family-friendly meals made with ingredients you can find anywhere.
We value simplicity, connection, and authenticity. Every recipe we publish is tested in our home kitchen, created with real ingredients and real life in mind. We care deeply about making food that's good for people, animals, and the planet - because good food and kindness always go hand in hand.
