I’m Natasha Nadel, a vegan chef, educator, and author of The Healthy Family, Healthy You Cookbook and The Healthy Mama’s Guide to Feeding Your Family Well. I created Jews Eat Veggies to empower Jewish families (and curious eaters everywhere) to adopt healthy, plant-based living—without sacrificing flavor, tradition, or dessert.
Whether you’re already vegan, plant-curious, or simply trying to eat more veggies, I’m here to help you make easy, nourishing meals for yourself and your loved ones. From quick weeknight dinners to festive Shabbat and Jewish holiday recipes, I’ll show you how to fill your table with vibrant, healthy vegan food everyone can enjoy.
For almost a decade, I ran plant-based cooking classes, workshops, and camps for all ages—from Jewish day school students to children with special needs and seniors. Today, I have moved my work educating the community to this blog, in addition to my day job running the café at my children’s day school. My work supports the growing plant-based movement in the Jewish community by offering resources that prove Jewish life can support our health and happiness—not contribute to heart disease, obesity, or Type 2 diabetes.
We know that community builds physical and mental health, but too often, fully participating in Jewish life can feel like a challenge to our well-being. If you’re here, I hope you’ll join me in changing that narrative.
Let’s create a future where Jewish living nourishes us—body and soul—with delicious vegan recipes that honor tradition and uplift our health.
(And yes, you can still have dessert!)
