Ellanor Aquitaine

• Ellanor is a lifelong vegetarian who credits her deep love of cooking to a childhood spent cozied around forest campfires, picking wild strawberries from the hedgerows, and making buttery garlic mushrooms in a campervan parked atop the wild cliffs of Cornwall, U.K.
• A passionate and intuitive home cook, she relishes the opportunity to cook extravagant Indian vegetarian thalis daily, prepare simple Italian picnics for long evenings at the beach, and recreate all the street foods she tried while touring Europe. Not a day goes by without her working on a new recipe or cooking up a storm.
• Ellanor runs a vegetarian recipe blog called Oh My Veg!, where she celebrates food's incredible role in our lives as an expression of love, bonding, and cultural learning. She acts as a food photographer, stylist, recipe developer, and researcher.

Experience

When Ellanor realized she was talking to her clients more about food than the products she was selling, she conceded that it was time for a career change; she immediately began carving out a little corner of the internet dedicated to like-minded cooks wanting to explore the wealth of global vegetarian recipes, regional Indian cuisine, and reimagined European classics within the context of sustainability and cultural learning. In the five years since then, Ellanor's work on Oh My Veg! has earned her a prominent position in the U.K.'s vegetarian community, recognized as a top 20 blog by Feedspot.
