Provecho: 100 Vegan Mexican Recipes to Celebrate Culture and Community (Edgar Castrejón) *Signed*

When Edgar Castrejon adopted a vegan lifestyle as a college student away from home for the first time, he worried he would no longer fit in at the table with his family. Growing up in a diverse neighborhood in Oakland, the proud first-generation Mexican American had spent countless hours cooking alongside his mom, aunts, and grandmother in the kitchen, where family recipes were passed down through "las manos magicas" rather than written notes. Realizing that following a plant-based diet made him feel better, but wanting to continue enjoying the flavors of authentic Mexican and Latin American cuisines, Edgar began transforming traditional, meat-heavy recipes into inventive, plant-based creations.
