My Story

I didn't always eat this way. 

For years I was a busy professional, rushing through weeks, grabbing whatever was convenient, and honestly not thinking much about what I was putting in my body. I was tired.

More tired than I thought I should be. And I started to wonder if what I was eating had something to do with it. 

When I started adding more plant-based foods to my diet — not eliminating things overnight, just adding more plants — something shifted. My energy improved. My mind felt clearer. I started sleeping better. And I started actually enjoying being in the kitchen again. 

That change led me to become a certified health coach, deepen my understanding of nutrition, and eventually build Plants With Chris as a place to share everything I've learned.

My Philosophy

I eat about 90% plant-based. The other 10% is called real life. And I believe that philosophy is exactly what you should bring to your table too. 

This isn't about being perfect. It's about progress. It's about feeding your family more of the good stuff, feeling better in your body, and building habits that actually last. 

No guilt. No restriction. No 47-ingredient recipes on a Tuesday night.
