About

Caleb grew up in a small Midwestern town, where food was always at the center of family life. Sunday dinners meant big tables, warm kitchens, and stories passed around as generously as the mashed potatoes. But when Caleb chose to go vegan in his early twenties, he faced a challenge: how to keep those comforting traditions alive without the meat, dairy, or eggs.

That journey sparked leuchi.com. What started as a way to veganize his family’s favorite meals quickly turned into a passion for creating recipes that are simple, flavorful, and full of heart. Caleb’s cooking is inspired by his Italian-American roots, his mom’s way of making everything from scratch, and his dad’s love of bold flavors.

Now, through leuchi.com, Caleb shares dishes that anyone can make whether you’re a busy parent, a student, or someone just curious about eating more plant-based. His philosophy is simple: food should nourish, comfort, and bring people together.
