The inside scoop on everything vegetarian

We Ate Well is a community for foodies. Our mission is to help you eat mindfully, joyfully and sustainably on a vegetarian diet.

Publications in this space tend to straddle two extremes - creating a sensory overload of refined carbs in the form of bread, rice and noodles; or on the other hand proposing uninspiring combinations of avocado, greens and quinoa for every meal. But is it impossible to be a foodie, a vegetarian and want to eat healthy all at the same time? We aim to fill the void in between and find that sweet spot by solving this culinary trilemma.

We feature globally inspired healthy recipes and naturally sweetened desserts that are free from refined carbs and sugar, and rooted in flavor. Our recipes are usually moderately low-carb, high-protein and often gluten-free. And always, always, made from whole foods that are naturally satisfying. We provide you with nutritional content (macros) for each recipe so you can make informed decisions about what you eat.

We also bring you insights on food, cuisines of the world, nutritional research as well as occasional product and book recommendations.

Hi, I’m Vasudha!

I am the author of The Vegetarian Reset and the founder of this community. I’ve been a lifelong vegetarian and passionate home cook. My journey into eating healthy started with a doctor’s note about my elevated blood sugar after a routine physical. I transformed the way I cook to cut out excessive starch and sugar and have never felt better!

After spending over a decade on Wall Street, I left my career in finance to write a cookbook and create We Ate Well. I hope you enjoy taking this culinary journey with me. Looking back, you’ll know you ate well.
