plant based comida

Vegan Xicana is dedicated to plant based comida that transcends generations by focusing on plant based cooking with a decolonial lens. Bringing over 10 years of experience within social justice organizations and leading community events, I have been able to provide educational workshops and skill shares to youth through summer programs and youth conferences in Southern California and college students in community colleges, the CSU and UC system. Among my most rewarding work has been connecting with seƱoras at community skill shares and exchanging ideas and stories about plant based comida.
