About

Carleigh Bodrug grew up on a farm in Ontario, Canada. She attended the University of Western Ontario, where she majored in journalism and worked as a student health reporter for the campus news channel. Her career began at a radio station. A significant turning point in her life was her father’s diagnosis with colon cancer, which motivated her to start her PlantYou food blog in 2016. This platform initially served to document her journey into plant-based cooking. Over time, her dedication transformed PlantYou into a full-time endeavor, establishing her as a self-taught plant-based chef and content creator.

Bodrug is widely recognized for her work in promoting plant-based diets and waste minimization. Her online presence has grown significantly, attracting over 2.5 million followers across her social media channels. In 2022, she published her first cookbook, “PlantYou: 140+ Ridiculously Easy, Amazingly Delicious Plant-Based Oil-Free Recipes,” which quickly gained acclaim. This book won first place in the 2023 IVFF awards, was shortlisted for the 2023 Taste Canada Awards Health or Special Diet Cookbooks, and was named the “Best New Vegetarian Cookbook of 2022” by Woman’s Day. Runner’s World included it in its list of the “6 Best Vegan Cookbooks to Get More Plants in Your Diet” in 2022, and Food & Wine recognized it as one of “the 20 Best Vegan Cookbooks for Every Type of Meal” in 2024.

Building on her initial success, Bodrug released her second cookbook, “PlantYou: Scrappy Cooking,” in 2024. This work focuses on plant-based, low-waste recipes, featuring innovations like lemon-peel pasta. This cookbook has also received positive attention, being listed among “The year’s best vegan cookbooks” by the Portland Press Herald and recognized by VegNews as one of “The Best Vegan Cookbooks of 2024” and among the “Top 100 Vegan Cookbooks of All Time.” Her dedication to reducing food waste is evident in projects such as a viral Instagram video demonstrating how to turn discarded orange peels into candy, which garnered 1 million views. Her advocacy extends to highlighting the environmental benefits of plant-based agriculture.
