Hi, I’m Kreg!
Welcome to my food blog Big Box Vegan! You might have found me via my popular instagram account of the same name where I post vegan food finds from big box retailers so you might be wondering what does he know about vegan cooking and baking though? Well, quite a lot actually! I’ve been fully vegan since 1994 but have been cooking pretty much since I was five years old at the knees of my Polish grandmother and great aunts. I was always intrigued by the science of baking and the creative process of creating food and almost considered a career in the culinary arts. My dreams took me in another direction and I found myself living in London in the mid 90s touring and recording with my indie rock band that was signed to a British record label. I was already vegetarian but the UK seemed way ahead of everyone in terms of prepared vegan options even back then so I decided to take the plunge and have never looked back.
I am vegan for many reasons. The animals, the earth, and my health all play a part in why I choose this lifestyle but I celebrate anyone trying to be fully vegan or just eating vegan just a few days a week. It’s all progress and I hope my recipes give you ideas and help you on your journey. It’s no secret I love vegan comfort food and am always trying to perfect the best version of a recipe so that no one would ever know it’s vegan. Here you will find versions of family favorites and classic recipes that are completely vegan and utterly delicious.
