review: Editorial Reviews Review “Mexican food has always been my go-to comfort food. And with ¡Salud! Vegan Mexican Cookbook , Eddie shows us that we can enjoy the rich flavors of Mexico in a healthful way that not only nourishes the soul but our entire body.” ―María Celeste Arrarás, Puerto Rican broadcast journalist, best-selling author, and winner of the PETA Humanitarian Award “If you think good Mexican food has to have meat in it, you don’t know beans! ¡Salud! Vegan Mexican Cookbook takes Mexican food back to its plant-based origins and highlights the incredible versatility of ancient beans, grains and native fruits and vegetables. Put down that beef burrito and pull out your chopping block for a wholesome spin on all your favorite Mexican dishes!” ―Patricia De Leon, Panamanian actress, PETA member and spokesperson “More and more people are moving away from eating meat, whether they’re going vegan, vegetarian or simply taking a weekly holiday from meat by participating in Meatless Mondays. Well, get ready to send out some dinner invitations to your veggie-loving friends because you are about to seriously impress them with these innovative plant-based takes on Mexican classics!” ―Christine Elise, American television and film actress, author of the food blog Delightful-Delicious-Delovely “If you talk about Mexican food most people would think “oh yes! Let's eat meat!” This book does a superb job proving them wrong. A book that mixes vegan and Mexican in the same dish is just a must have for any food and animal lover.” ―Pablo Azar, Mexican-American television actor, PETA member and spokesperson “Latin food is my favorite cuisine. So my palate is pretty picky when it comes to some of my favorite dishes, and I'm happy to report this cookbook absolutely nails them. You'll have the best time creating these delicious and easy-to-follow recipes, while also doing right by animals, the planet, and yourself! If you know anyone who balks at the thought of vegan food then you can feel free to smirk when you tell them everything they just devoured at your Latin-food dinner party was 100-percent animal-friendly.” ―Stephanie Beatriz, actress, Brooklyn 99 Tortillas, tamales, tacos...who ever said healthy eating had to be boring?
