Plant Powered Mexican Recipe Roundup
Let's take a look at some of the recipes from the cookbook already sweeping the internet.
Chile Relleno Rice Casserole Recipe
This cheesy rice casserole is a particular favorite in our house and became an instant hit with my friends at California Grown too. The grassy poblano peppers are the ones used to make chile rellenos, the traditional cheese-stuffed peppers that are fried and served with a silky tomato sauce.
Chilled Avocado Soup
This soup from Plant Powered Mexican makes for an easy, healthy light lunch or dinner made for hot summer nights. Silky smooth and utterly refreshing topped with crunchy sunflower seeds and edible flowers.
A Sensational Recipe for Smoky Tomato Instant Pot Tortilla Soup
This low-maintenance dinner from Plant Powered Mexican comes together in minutes and everyone loves it, everyone. I was thrilled that Meg from This Mess Is Ours was as estatic about it as we are.
Roasted Carrot Barbacoa Tostadas
Aida from Salt & Wind Travel made this awesome Carrot Barbacoa Recipe from the book. The humble carrot makes a surprisingly good vegan substitute for barbacoa. Once roasted in the aromatic rustic sauce, carrots take on a subtly sweet lushness, plus it roasts in a little over 30 minutes so you can satisfy that Barbacoa craving way faster than when using beef.
Vegan Picadillo Tostadas with Rice and Peas
Our family's Picadillo recipe (made vegan) was featured on my friend K.C.'s site, G-Free Foodie. Picadillo is a traditional dish in many Latin American countries usually made with ground meat, potatoes, and spices. This version uses plant-based meat for a vegan twist.
