The Accidental Vegan

By Devra Gartenstein
Celestial Arts - 2009

April 2nd, 2010

With tons of streamlined recipes, this cookbook is very useful for anyone wanting to eat more plant based meals.

And about those tamales, don't miss 'em. There are several variations, all with simple directions and they're great!
