This is a step by step cookbook for people with families who want to be vegetarian/vegan but don't know how to start. This book contains a lifelong collection of Cuban food recipes which span generations in my family. These recipes originate in Cuba and are from the decades of the 1920's, 30's, 40's and 50's. These old fashioned recipes were originally made using beef, chicken, pork, fish, lard, eggs and dairy. After years of experimenting with different plant based proteins I settled on a few good substitutions for the animal products. Substitutions that are easily obtained in your local grocery store or on the internet. I have created a Cuban/Vegan fusion which maintains the integrity, and delicious flavors of the original recipes.
