• Simple Happy Kitchen®

    I created Simple Happy Kitchen out of a love for animals, plant-based nutrition, and design. I used my illustration and design skills to promote plant-based living and compassion for animals, make helpful information more accessible—and hopefully do a little good in the world.

    The project began with an illustrated book that transforms graphs, charts, and often-dry nutritional information into engaging visual content that is easy to understand and based on reliable, high-quality sources. Over time, the project expanded to include illustrated posters, activity books for children, and other products featuring characters from the book.

    All nutrition-related information was written and verified by qualified dietitians.

Important questions

Simple Happy Kitchen is a project by Miki Mottes that began in 2017 as a successful Kickstarter campaign. The first product was a book—an illustrated guide to plant-based nutrition. Over time, it expanded into various products such as dolls, stickers, coloring books, posters, and much more, all designed to explain plant-based nutrition simply, clearly, and humorously for both kids and adults.

Miki is vegan, an animal rights activist, and a volunteer at an animal rescue farm. Simple Happy Kitchen began as Facebook posts that helped people around the world learn about plant-based sources of protein, calcium, and iron, and has since grown into a large global community of around 800,000 people.
