This Heritage Month, we’re celebrating something that brings all of us
to the table — food! Joining us is chef, cookbook author and food
content creator Thilivhali “Mash” Mugwena, founder of Meals With Mash. Born and raised in Venda, Limpopo, her love for food started right at home before eventually taking her from a career in finance into the culinary world. 

Today, through Meals With Mash, she’s putting South African flavours,
family recipes and heritage on the menu — while also showing us that
traditional food can evolve without losing its roots.
