The Face Behind....                                                                             JULY2020











       Hey, I’m Ellis! Aka mummy, aka
       @growmevegan. I've been on this wild
       adventure with my daughter Seren for the
       last wonderful 8 months!


        I’m a vegan mama who loves coming up
       with new recipes and creating new ideas in
       the kitchen for Seren and I to try.


       Having my first child and facing my
       maternity leave during a global pandemic
       has definitely been an interesting ride! I’ve
       constantly been questioning my parenting
       ability and if I’m doing enough for my little
       one.

       One thing I’ve learnt and that will stick
       with me if I ever have another little one is
       that they definitely go at their own pace
       and even at such a young age will steer
       towards their own preferences of what
       they will/won’t do!
       My little girl loves to chatter but is not
       that fussed about moving around yet!
       (Totally fine by me as I don’t know how I’ll
       cope chasing her around the house all
       day) Thankfully there are some wonderful
       online communities of mothers who are
       the most kind and supportive people you
       can imagine and I’ve made a lot of online
       friends during this strange time!


        I run an Instagram food account full of
       baby friendly recipes and food ideas to
       help other mothers along their journey. I
       love cooking up a storm and seeing my
       daughter enjoy all the different home
       made meals I can come up with!
                                                                                 “One thing I’ve learnt
       I’m also an avid traveller when pandemics  Given my absolute love of food I thought
       aren’t getting in the way! Before having  I’d share with you one of my favourite  and that will stick
       Seren I explored 12 different countries in  mum friendly/baby friendly weaning
       12 months visiting 1 a month and it was  recipes that I cook for me and Seren! It’s a with me is that they
       such an amazing experience. Serens first  one pot veggie stroganoff (so less mess  definitely go at their
       holiday got cancelled but we will definitely  too, yay)!
       be booking more when allowed and                                          own pace.”
       sharing our experiences of travelling and
       where we end up.
