In today’s episode, Tomi Makanjuola from the Nigerian Vegan. Tomi, who was born and raised in Nigeria, now living in the UK has been vegan for many years and she is doing some really cool things. Tomi is a blogger, content creator, published cookbook writer, cooking instructor, and chef all inspired by her Nigerian heritage. In this episode of the World Vegan travel podcast, Tomi will have you salivating as she shares lots of what she knows about Nigerian ingredients, the cuisine, and even the regional differences.

We invite you to take in all that Tomi shares, check out her cookbook and her blog and do some virtual travel through Nigeria and experience the country through its food, or be inspired to visit a Nigerian or West African restaurant in your city. After my chat with Tomi, I googled Nigerian restaurants in Vancouver where I live and found a Nigeria Meets the Pacific Northwest restaurant with a vegan summer tasting menu with Moi Moi, cassava, and plantain. I want to check it out stat!
