I am grateful for these gorgeous photos and enticing recipes that will nourish our bodies, feed our spirits and honor our ancestors." --Luz Calvo, co-author of Decolonize Your Diet "For anyone looking to veganize their cultural foods and flavors, this is an excellent example of how to do so without giving up one's cultural foods, tastes and memories." --Claudia Serrato, cultural and culinary anthropologist "Jocelyn's personal story of coming to a plant-based diet is informed by deep ancestral roots, social consciousness and a commitment to the health of the planet and all communities. You can feel the depth of wisdom behind Jocelyn's insights about food and its central role in our lives." --Clare Fox, executive director of the Los Angeles Food Policy Council Publisher Marketing: An Inspired Collection of Time-Honored Mexican Recipes Follow along with Jocelyn Ramirez as she transforms the traditional dishes she grew up making alongside her Abuela into wonderfully flavorful plant-based meals everyone will love.
