  ciabatta dipped in olive oil
  brownies
  sweet potato fries coated with panko and sea salt

I’ll pick the winner randomly after Friday. I can only ship to those in the U.S.Sorry, overseas/overborders folks. When you comment, be sure to sign in with your email address so I can contact you directly.

new vegan recipe zine “Vegan De Guadalupe” July 30, 2008

Hortencia Armendariz from South Texas sent me this about her new zine “Vegan De Guadalupe.”

My first ever vegan cook zine, I put it together after collecting many vegan cookzines and thinking to myself “I should do this.” Also, because i’ve heard with frequency people comment on how expensive its to make vegan mexican food.  That’s bull!  So I wanted to prove people wrong but also make a zine that consists of easy mexican food recipes, that is great for vegan beginners, and bilingual because i’m a border child with half her heart in Mexico and the Rio Grande Valley.  So all the recipes are in english and spanish. It has great cover design by my bff danae; who incidentally introduced me to veganism while attending school in Monterrey, Mexico.

These are the recipes included:
Chilaquiles Verdes, Papas a la Mexicana, Sopa de Lentejas, Tacos de Papa, Chalupas, Taco Chino, Caldo Tlalpeño, Frijoles de Olla, Frijoles a la Charra, Calabacitas Guisadas, Mole Verde, Sopa de Fideo, Guisado de Seitan, Salsa Verde Casera, Sala Roja a la Horticulturelandia, Pico de Gallo a mi Gusto, Salsa Verde a la Horticulturelandia, Salsa Roja Guisada de Mama, Galletas de Avena y Platano, Capirotada, Pastel de Chocolate, Coctel de Frutas.

There’s also a flickr group where ppl can post pictures of the recipes they try, just search for “Vegan de Guadalupe Cookzine.”
