Viva Vegan!
a reality. I can’t thank you enough, but this is a start:
John Stavropoulos for the shopping, cleaning, hugs, and life management stuff done while I was busy losing my mind. I love you even when you buy parsley instead of cilantro.
My Stavropoulos and Vournas family: Eleni, Christopher, Kiki, Chris, Kathy, Tina, and Cleo the dog for driving me around (not Cleo, she’s too young to drive), and allowing me take over their house, basement, fridge, and kitchen for extreme food photography.
My Papá and Mom for answering all those questions about food and stuff en español any time I called. Someday I’ll give you your cook-books back.
Isa Moskowitz for all things Post Punk Kitchen,
theppk.com
, and getting the whole vegan world-domination thing in motion.

My Queens crew of Jimb, Evelyn, Erica, Frank, Keren, JZN, Paula, Herzy, Abby, John C. (many thanks for the last minute camera!), Eppy (and his slice of Brooklyn), and by extension nerd.nyc.
And to everyone who sparked their imaginations to help us name this book . . . Vegan La Raza!
I would also like to thank:
Katie, Erica, Renee, Lindsey, and Georgia at Da Capo.
Angie Gaul, photographer warrior woman extraordinaire.
Miha, Mark, Paige, and Nikki for the cover shoot, and Ira and Rocco the dog for their lovely digs and kitchen.
