About the Book

The definitive plant-based Mexican cookbook for a new generation, featuring 100 recipes transforming traditional dishes into vegan celebrations of family and home

ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR: Boston Globe and Glamour - "The stories will feed your soul and the recipes will channel your love for Mexican food in a wholesome plant-based way."--Nisha Vora, creator of Rainbow Plant Life and author of The Vegan Instant Pot Cookbook

Edgar Castrejón went vegan as a college student when he realized that following a plant-based diet made him feel better, but he worried he would no longer fit in back at the table with his family. As a proud first-generation Mexican American growing up in Oakland, Edgar had spent countless hours with his mom, aunts, and grandmother in the kitchen, where family recipes were passed down through "las manos mágicas." So Edgar began creating healthier, meatless variations on the dishes he grew up cooking and eating.

Provecho features one hundred of Edgar's ingenious vegan recipes that honor the traditional, often meat-heavy classics of Mexican and Latin American culture while cooking with compassion. Many take thirty minutes or less, rely on readily accessible ingredients, and feature Salvadoran and Colombian influences. And they're all organized by how meals are approached in Edgar's family:

- La Mesa Llena ("The Full Table"): Mushroom Sancocho; No-Bake Enchiladas Verde with Jackfruit; Lentil-Cauliflower Empanadas
- La Mesita ("The Small Table"): Sweet Potato and Kale Tacos; Quesadillas de Brócoli y Tofu; Vegan Queso Fundido
- La Mañana Después de la Cruda ("The Morning After"): Burritos de Desayuno; "Huevos" Rancheros; Papas con Chorizo Vegano
- Antojitos ("Little Cravings"): Vegan Chipotle Crema; Mi Tia Evelia's Ceviche de Coliflor; Ensalada de Nopales
- Bebidas ("Drinks"): Oat Milk Horchata; Jugo de Espinaca y Piña; Margarita Fuerte
- Postrecitos ("Little Desserts"): Almond Milk Rice Pudding with Cashew Cream; Gelatina de Mango Coco; Apple Empanadas

With Provecho, Edgar invites you to discover a whole new way to enjoy the flavors he has loved his entire life--and still wakes up craving every day.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
