Mexican Everyday (WW Norton & Co)

At last, here is a cookbook that brings Mexican food within easy reach. As much as Rick Bayless loves the bold flavours of Mexican foods, he understands that preparing many Mexican specialities requires time. "Mexican Everyday" is written with the time sensitivities of modern life in mind. It is a collection of 90 full-flavoured recipes - like Green Chile Chicken Tacos, Shrimp Ceviche Salad, Chipotle Steak with Black Beans - that meet three criteria for "everyday" food: most need less than 30 minutes' involvement; they have the fresh, clean taste of simple, authentic preparations; and they are nutritionally balanced meals with no need for elaborate side dishes. This book provides dishes you can eat day in and day out.
