About
Hi! I’m Niki and I’ve been obsessed with food for as long as I can remember. As a fussy child with a dairy intolerance who refused to eat meat, my mum gave up and let me loose in the kitchen. And that’s where it all began!
Travelling as a teen opened my eyes to incredible flavours—Turkey, India, the Middle East, and Asia all shaped the way I cook today. But back home, plant-based options were limited, so I started creating my own.
In 2015, I launched Rebel Recipes while juggling a full-time marketing job. By 2016, I took the leap, left corporate life, and never looked back.
Now, I share bold, nourishing, plant-based recipes that celebrate whole foods and big flavours. I’m so excited to have you here—let’s cook something amazing!
The Evolution of Rebel Recipes
When I started in 2015, plant-based eating was still niche, seen as restrictive rather than abundant. But then things shifted—climate change became a focus, and eating vibrant, wholesome food went mainstream.
That’s why Rebel Recipes exists: to show that real, unprocessed ingredients can create incredible, flavour-packed dishes. Whether it’s a hearty one-pot, a nourishing salad, or a comforting bake, every recipe is designed to be easy, delicious, and satisfying.
Fast forward to today—plant-based options are everywhere. Some are great, some… not so much. But here, it’s all about real food, made with fresh ingredients and big flavours.
I’d love for you to join me—let’s make plant-based food exciting together!
