Meet Our Founder
Janessa Steenberg grew up in an Italian-Maltese family that incorporated meat and cheese into every meal. By joining her grandmother in the kitchen, she learned the secrets to Mediterranean cooking that had been passed down in her family for generations.
Over a decade ago, Janessa became interested in the food industry. Concerned about the impact of animal products on our health, she assumed a plant-based diet. Fueled by her grandmother’s quest for optimal health through a Mediterranean diet, Janessa transitioned to a plant-based diet. With her love of traditional Italian flavors and research-based knowledge of plant-based nutrition, Panacheeza was born.
