Boy, has it been challenging to keep this zesty secret since last August when I was awarded this Mexican food feature and began creating and testing recipes in earnest!
The whole experience of working with the *team at VegNews and in my own kitchen, trying out recipes on my friends (and on one friend’s horse, Rocky who loved the cilantro!), has been deliciously rewarding on every level.
I am humbled to be associated with VegNews, as it is the award-winning vegan magazine and website packed with recipes
Run, don’t walk, to the nearest newsstand–or better yet, subscribe to VegNews–to get your copy. Inside the May-June issue, you will find my tasty and easy take on:
Crispy Potato Tacos with Queso Fresco
Cheesy Spinach and Black Bean Quesadillas with Cucumber-Mango Salsa
Swiss Chard and Mushroom Tamales with Red Wine Sauce (Escabeche Sauce)
Churros with Coconut-Kahlua Chocolate Sauce
Gimlet Guadelajara
You will only find these recipes in the May-June print issue of VegNews Magazine (with additional recipes online). So, for the whole enchilada, as it were, be sure to pick up your copy as soon as it hits the stands!
*Olé (!) to my fabulous editor, Jennifer Chen, photographer, Vanessa K. Rees, and graphic designer, Sutton Long (who originally hails from Richmond, VA, right up I64). They brought my recipes to mouth-watering, eye-popping life!
