“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? It's refreshing to see a chef re-imaging our favorite comfort foods to be enjoyed any day of the week as part of a wholesome diet. After all, who doesn't want to be able to enjoy Taco Tuesday without the guilt?!
―Adriana Martin, Celebrity Health & Lifestyle Expert, Author, Radio/TV Personality
“I love the concept of this book! As an expert in holistic nutrition I’m always excited to find ways to transform food that I love into a healthier version and Mexican food is no exception, especially because it is my favorite! It’s great to nourish our body with plant-based nutrition without giving up the flavor that makes our food unique.¡Salud! Vegan Mexican Cookbook is a must-have!”
―Ingrid Macher, Transformation Coach

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I think when I first received this book a couple years ago, yes, I was upset that there weren't many pictures. Like many others have said, I enjoy comparing how my food looks with the picture and photos often bring you to follow the recipe. BUT I've used so many recipes in this book and each one have been delicious!!! You cannot go wrong with the baja tacos (cauliflower tacos), the nopales guisados (we love hard on cactus), or the spiced potato enchiladas (with traditional enchilada toppings, they are yummy!). The cilantro lime rice is a bowl changer (top with black beans, chipotle cauliflower, and sauteed veggies).
I have a couple Mexican cookbooks and I always flip through this one to grab ideas of what to use with the ingredients I always have.
If you love Mexican food and follow a vegan/plant-based diet, this book is an absolute must-have!
Thanks Eddie for a great book.
