Influencer Spotlight on Maria Koutsogianis
By: Bob's Red Mill | February 22 2019Today’s spotlight is on foodie blogger and influencer Maria Koutsogianis. Maria runs the blog FoodByMaria.com and has a burning passion not only to change the way people eat, but also to change the way they think about and relate to food. She also wants to change how people think about fitness and exercise, and how they view this world we all inhabit together.
Her blog is chock full of delicious, plant-based, vegan and vegetarian recipes, along with meal planning ideas for people that want to eat better but simply don’t know where to start. Her blog and ideals are centered around the singular idea that we either eat to feed disease or we eat to fight disease. She firmly believes food is the answer when it comes to better health, better fitness and a healthy, more positive emotional life, if we can only take the time to slow down.
We need to eat food that is good for us, that fuels us and sustains us, and stop merely consuming “food” that is convenient and easy. That’s a tall order, we know, especially in today’s world of busy-ness. You may think it’s tough to find healthy foods that are quick and nutritious, and even tougher to find foods that are quick, nutritious and don’t break the bank!
Another thing we love about FoodByMaria.com is the fact that her blog is so visually appealing. Maria uses beautiful photography to emphasize generous doses of wisdom and inspiration, written for those like her who may be embarking on a path of recovery and healing.
If you’re a food groupie like us (and we think you are) and you want to continue to eat or begin eating a plant-based diet, rife with foods that are living and nourishing and could possibly transform your life . . . you’ve got to start following Maria. Follow her on her blog and on her beautiful Instagram that totally makes us hungry.
In the meantime, keep reading for a short interview with Maria herself.
