This international collection offers dishes made with fresh vegetables including appetizers such as watercress asparagus roll-ups; soups and stews such as Moroccan vegetable tagine and green-on-green gumbo; and main courses such as corn-on-chili pie, egg-plant enchiladas, mushroom ravioli divan, and moo shu vegetables.

The recipes include tantalizing dishes from distinct regions of Mexico: classic meatless soups; authentic sauces and table salsas; snacks made of masa (corn dough) and tortillas; many varieties of tamales; egg dishes; beans; rice, pastas, and potatoes; salads and pickled vegetables; traditional and contemporary desserts; fruit drinks; mixed drinks; and more. Reflecting the trend toward lightness, there is a strong emphasis on using fewer full-fat dairy products.
