Meet Samantha & Mia
Hi! I’m Samantha—vegan foodie, full-time student, and one-half of the team behind Shecoox. The other half? That’s Mia, my best friend, roommate, and kitchen co-pilot. We met in college, bonded over a shared love of avocado toast, and haven’t stopped cooking (or laughing) since.
What started as classmates became friendship, then roommateship, and now this blog. We’re both passionate about plant-based living and wanted a place to share our favorite vegan recipes with people just like us.
Hi, I’m Mia, I’m so happy you’re here! I love making easy vegan meals with Samantha. Cooking together is one of my favorite things, and starting Shecoox has been such a fun adventure. I hope our recipes make you feel happy, full, and inspired.
What You’ll Find Here
Here, we share:
Simple, tasty vegan recipes (the kind that actually make it to the dinner table)
– Tips from our student kitchen life
– Honest stories behind each dish
– Food that celebrates community, not perfection
– No fluff, no judgment—just real food made with love.
How it Began
The idea came to life one night over lentil curry and too much green tea. Mia and I were talking about how tough it was to find fun, relatable vegan recipes online. Everything either felt too fancy or too bland.
So, I said, “Why don’t we start our own blog?” and Mia said, “Let’s call it Shecoox.”
We had no idea what we were doing, but we grabbed our aprons, opened a shared Google Doc, and just started. Every recipe here has been tested in our tiny college kitchen—some flopped, most succeeded, and all taught us something.
Our Other Passion
Outside the kitchen, yoga keeps us grounded—literally. What started as a way to manage study stress turned into a shared love. Now it’s part of our daily rhythm.
We roll out our mats in the living room, light a candle, and move through each flow together. Sometimes we talk, sometimes we don’t. But in those quiet moments—between breath and stretch—I feel most connected to myself, and to her. It’s where peace and creativity meet, and where I often find new inspiration for the recipes we share.
