Description:
More than just a cookbook,Decolonize Your Dietredefines what is meant by "traditional" Mexican food by reaching back through hundreds of years of history to reclaim heritage crops as a source of protection from modern diseases. Authors Luz Calvo and Catriona Rueda Esquibel are life partners; when Luz was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006, they both radically changed their diets and began seeking out recipes featuring healthy, vegetarian Mexican foods (Luz's cancer is now in remission). They promote a diet rich in plants indigenous to Latin America but widely available (corn, beans, squash, greens, herbs, and seeds), and are passionate about the idea that we all need to ditch the fast food for both physical health and spiritual fulfillment.
