Hi! I ́m Maria. Welcome to She likes Greens! Creating delicious plant-based recipes is one of my biggest passions and I am excited to share them with you on this blog!
A little about me…I am originally from the US but have been living in Barcelona, Spain for the past 6 years. I moved to Barcelona to get my MBA in 2013 and originally planned on moving back to the states after my 2-year program. Little did I know that I would fall in love with a European, get married, get a full-time job and turn this little “international experience” into my real life. Six years later and here I am. Moving abroad was the best thing that I have ever done!
I am an extremely active person. I love rock climbing, beach volleyball, windsurfing, and salsa dancing. On the weekends you can almost always find me hanging off of rocks or covered in sand at the beach!
I currently work full-time a Spanish fashion company in Barcelona. I work on She likes Greens at night and on the weekends. It is my passion project!
While I am not a professional chef, I am completely obsessed with cooking. And I am even more obsessed with eating amazing food. I love learning new cooking techniques, trying new recipes, and developing recipes of my own.
What you will find in this blog
She likes Greens is a blog dedicated to a variety of hearty, flavorful plant-based recipes that both vegans and non-vegans will enjoy. My recipes are easy to make, I try to avoid unnecessary ingredients and complicated cooking methods at all costs. And most importantly, I don´t settle for recipes that lack in flavor or main dishes that leave you feeling hungry. All recipes on the blog have been approved by my husband, he is 6´4¨/193cm and eats…A LOT.
For all of you meat-eaters out there, I hope that some of the recipes on the blog inspire you to try a plant-based meal or two so you can see for yourself how truly delicious it can be! For vegetarians and people already following a plant-based diet, I hope that my recipes can give you some new inspiration to mix up your dishes.
