Speaking of fast cooking...

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead
This is the cookbook I believe I wil get this year. I've never done anything in Mexican food other than tacos and maybe enchilada casserole once or twice, and both my girls like it. This book promises fast, healthy dishes using those flavors so I thought I'd give it a try and be the old dog that learns some new tricks. Anybody got it?

At last, a cookbook that brings Mexican food within easy reach: named to Food & Wine Magazine’s Year’s 25 Best Cookbooks as part of its annual Best of the Best cookbook.

In his previous books, Rick Bayless transformed America's understanding of Mexican cuisine, introducing authentic dishes and cooking methods as he walked readers through Mexican markets and street stalls. As much as Rick loves the bold flavors of Mexican foods, he understands that preparing many Mexican specialties requires more time than most of us have. Mexican Everyday is written with the time sensitivities of modern life in mind. It is a collection of 90 full-flavored recipes—like Green Chile Chicken Tacos, Shrimp Ceviche Salad, Chipotle Steak with Black Beans—that meet three criteria for "everyday" food: 1) most need less than 30 minutes' involvement; 2) they have the fresh, clean taste of simple, authentic preparations; and 3) they are nutritionally balanced, full-featured meals—no elaborate side dishes required. Companion to a thirteen-part public television series, this book provides dishes you can eat with family and friends, day in and day out.

Sounds great! I wish my daughter would like Mexican food, since hubby and I both do. Perhaps I need to just try some more things for her to sample? Let me know what recipes you like from the new book.

Well, now that your daughter is off to college, you can cook whatever YOU like. :lol:

There has to be some sort of silver lining to having them leave. :weeping:
