About Me
HI, I'm so happy you're here! I’m Kayla, a wife, and mama of two little guys, with a passion for healthy living, especially when it pertains to food.
I care about what I eat, ALOT. Eating plant-powered food allows me to feel my absolute best! Of course eating this way nourishes my body and beyond that, I find so much JOY out of cooking healthy food for my family and others.
​
Originally I started this blog as a passionate outlet while at home with two little boys. Sharing my love of vegetables through healthy recipes & inspiration online, turned into food prepping for clients in their homes. Shortly after realizing I can only be in one person’s home at a time, I expanded to working out of a commercial kitchen where many more plant-powered to-go meals are created to feed many more people!
​
You can find The Roasted Chickpea meals in stores and coffee shops throughout Castlegar, BC and the surrounding area or pre-order and pick-up your meals on Wednesday locally (new menu posted each week, order by Saturday).
​
​
Specializing in plant-based and gluten-free healthy meal prep, I aim to fill the gap for those on the hunt for something quick, delicious & nutritionally dense, while also suiting special dietary needs & preferences. And with an abundance of recipes right here on my website, you can make your own at home!
​
Now offering grazing table catering for your next event, find out more information here.
​
I also love connecting with others, supporting and working with healthy lifestyle and food brands. I love to collaborate! Contact me here.
​
My hopes are to provide fulfilling plant-forward recipes that are even enticing and approachable for all. Everyone could use a little more vegetables in their lives!
