Plant-Based Mexican

Andrea Aliseda (she/her) is a food, culture writer, and plant-based recipe developer based in Los Angeles, CA. Andrea has been published by De Los, The LA Times, Epicurious, The Kitchn, Bon Appetit, Harper’s Bazaar, and more. Her “genius” Salsa Guille, originally published in Epicurious, was featured on Food52’s Genius Recipes, and her self-titled substack newsletter of essays on Mexican food, culture, and identity was dubbed “recommended reading” by Soleil Ho in the SF Chronicle. With a love for California cuisine, fresh produce, herbs, and mushrooms, Andrea marries her plant-based culinary style with seasonal vegetables, nostalgic and post-colonial Mexican recipes rooted in place, and a dash of whimsy. When not writing about food, she’s typing away on fiction and poetry, and hanging out with her love and pup. Find her at andreaaliseda.com and on Instagram @andrea_aliseda.
