I am not a gourmet cook, but I like to eat good food. This little cookbook has less than 100 pages, but presents approximately 300 delicious, authentic Mexican recipes that are very easy to prepare. Nothing is complicated and the pictures are nice. None of the recipes take more than an hour to prepare.

No overload of information. If you want to serve good Mexican meals that go beyond burritos, beans and rice, then this is for you. My husband is from Guanajuato, Mexico and these recipes have consistently pleased him. The meatball soup, Pollo de Augascalients, and chicken in peanut sauce are some of our particular favorites.

I have been using this cookbook since 1979. If you love to cook, or are already an above-average cook who is well-versed in Mexican cuisine, this cookbook may be too simplistic. Otherwise, this is it!

I would like to find more cookbooks in this particular series, such as Russian, Indian and Italian.

There are some good recipes in this book...I actually bought it solely for the Chorizo recipe...can't go wrong there!

I have owned this book for 30 years, and was heartbroken to have lost it. That was because I loaned it out so many times!! Fortunately I found this copy. The Mexican chicken soup recipe is our family's favorite, and we have also enjoyed many appetizer recipes. This book is a great find.

I've lived in Arizona over 40 years. Enjoyed lots of quality, authentic cooking. When I want to fix Mexican food, this is my go to book. The recipes are easy to follow and delicious.

If you are looking for a Great Mexican Cook Book you have found it, simple recipes easy read and great taste
