Kind Words About 'Plantas'
Masterful, Vibrant, Nourishing
“Alexa’s debut cookbook masterfully combines traditional Mexican flavors with the vibrant world of plant-based cuisine. With every turning page you’ll be met with stunning visuals and nourishing accessible vegan recipes, suitable for a quick weeknight dinner to a lavish Mexican feast!”
— Carleigh Bodrug, New York Times Bestselling Author @Plantyou
Soulful, Elegant, Modern
“With Plantas, Alexa Soto elegantly pays homage to Mexico's storied legacy of plant-based cooking while deftly adapting its soulful repertoire to modern times. I may still be a card-carrying carnivore, sure, but I now find myself craving dishes like her mole negro with roasted oyster mushrooms even more than my beloved carne asada.”
— Jorge Gaviria, Award-winning author of MASA, CEO of Masienda @Masienda
