In this episode of Vegan Hacks, I sit down with Mohana Holloway to explore how her Indian heritage shaped her journey to veganism, why learning to cook is one of the most powerful skills for any vegan, and how culture has influenced plant-based eating for generations.

We dive into naturally vegan Indian dishes, underrated spices everyone should have in their pantry, dorm-room cooking hacks, vegan travel, finding community in unexpected places like Phoenix, Arizona, and why respecting the cultural roots of plant-based food matters more than ever.

Along the way, Mohana shares her favorite vegan restaurants, her famous air-fried Oreo recipe, stories from growing up in a multicultural household, and practical advice for staying vegan for the long haul.

Whether you're new to veganism or have been plant-based for years, this conversation is packed with inspiration, delicious food, and thoughtful discussion about where vegan cuisine came from and where it's headed next.
