I’m Milica Zdravkovic and MushroomSalus is my blog and your source of easy, healthy, and budget-friendly meatless recipes.
My aim is to share clean eating tips, wholesome recipes, and meal ideas that make healthy eating accessible and exciting.
From quick and easy crock pot recipes, instant pot meals, to air fryer wonders, my mission is to bring healthy meatless and dairy-free meals to your table with ease.
Every recipe I post aims to support a balanced lifestyle and promote clean, whole foods that fuel both body and soul.
Whether you’re a seasoned cook or just starting, my team and I are here to guide you through delicious recipes, healthy eating habits, and new culinary adventures.
Every recipe on MushroomSalus is cooked and tested in our home kitchen by Milica and Tomislav. We use AI tools to help draft and structure the written articles. We then review and edit every post, checking ingredients, quantities, cooking times and instructions against our own testing before it’s published.

Her favorite mushroom is portobello, which shows up often on the site because it’s meaty, versatile and easy to find. Her favorite dish is mushroom risotto, creamy, comforting and a perfect showcase for good mushrooms.
