Early life and education[edit]

Vora grew up in Barstow, California,[1][2] to parents who emigrated from Mumbai, India[1] to the United States during the 1980s.[3] Although they are vegetarian and she grew up eating Indian vegetarian cuisine, it was initially difficult for Vora when she decided to turn vegan in 2016, until she read books and watched documentaries on the topic.[1][2]

Vora received her undergraduate degree from the University of California, Berkeley and her JD from Harvard Law School in 2012.[4]

Career[edit]

Forbes named her first cookbook, The Vegan Instant Pot Cookbook: Wholesome, Indulgent Plant-Based Recipes as one of the "Best Vegan Cookbooks" of 2019,[5] Food & Wine called it as one of the “The 18 Best Vegan Cookbooks for Every Type of Meal” in 2023,[6] Parade listed it as one of the "Best Vegan Cookbooks to Add to Your Collection Right Now" in 2019,[7] and Good Housekeeping named it as one of the "14 Best Healthy Cookbooks, According to Cooking and Nutrition Experts" in 2023.[8] VegNews listed The Vegan Instant Pot Cookbook as one of the "Top 100 Vegan Cookbooks of All Time" in 2024. [9]

In 2023, Gotham named her cooking channel, Rainbow Plant Life one of the "8 Vegetarian and Vegan Youtube Channels That Make Plant-Based Cooking Easy."[10]
