The dishes in this book fit perfectly into the everyday family cooking schedule, are great to revitalize your daily repertoire, and use a handful of ingredients, most of which are already in your pantry. Many are homey specialties that Pati learned from her mother and grandmother, some are creative spins on classics, while others are not well known outside of Mexico. Pati also shares exciting dishes for the holidays and special occasions. Good cookbook with Pati's lively, fresh, level headed approach.
