 Tasty, tasty recipes May 16, 2007
By DioMio

Since my wife got this book, I've had some of the best mexican style food in years. Try the shredded pork. It's the best I've ever tried AND the tamales you can make with it are superb. Chicken and beef dishes are delicious, too, far better than you get at most restaurants. For us, living in the midwest doesn't mean mediocre mexican food anymore. Happy tamale time.

This cookbook is a must!!! Apr 19, 2008
By Bees
My husband loves, loves, LOVES the recipes I've gotten out of this cookbook! (Somehow a Scandinavian man has managed to develop quite a taste for spicy foods!) Our favorites are the Beef Chimichangas, Chicken Chimichangas, Frito Pie (yes, made with Fritos -- try it!), Corn Fritters (we add jalapenos), Asparagus with Avocado, and Spicy Shrimp Chowder. For appetizers, we like the Jalapeno Poppers and Texas Cavier especially. There are also some wonderful vegetarian offerings, in fact an entire chapter on Vegetarian Tex-Mex. Some of our faves include the Chile Rellenos Casserole, Quesadilles (our kids' favorite), and the Spinach Enchiladas. In fact, sometimes what I do is hold part of the recipe back for the kids before adding the jalapenos, spices, etc., so I've found that I can satisfy the whole family with these recipes. I especially liked the glossary in the back that explains Tex-Mex cooking terms . . . very informative.
This is another one of Linda's wonderful offerings to the world of food. I have become quite a junkie of her cookbooks!

An impressive collection of three hundred appetizing Tex-Mex recipes Jul 04, 2006
By Midwest Book Review
The Everything Tex-Mex Cookbook: 300 Flavorful Recipes To Spice Up Your Mealtimes! by Linda Larsen (a former Pillsbury Bake-Off staff member) is an impressive collection of three hundred appetizing Tex-Mex recipes, each one of which is thoroughly explained and easily made. A remarkable compendium of dishes suitable for any dining occasion, The Everything Tex-Mex Cookbook recipes range from Rib Mopping Sauce; Pork con Queso; and Tex-Mex Egg Rolls; to Pan Dulce Loaves; Refried Bean Burgers; and Tex-Mex Turkey Pot Pie. The Everything Tex-Mex Cookbook is a welcome addition to the cookbook shelves of culinary connoisseurs and busy family cooks for its remarkable collective coverage of every imaginable feast in the Tex-Mex style. Also very highly recommended are two other ethnic cookbooks from Adams Media: The Everything Thai Cookbook (158062-7331, $14.95) and The Everything Chinese Cookbook (1580629547, $14.95).

Tex Mex cooking Jun 14, 2009
By Thomas Ashley Daniels
I looked at a lot of books in the book store on mexican cooking...all were AUthentic mexican cooking not quite what I'm used to. This book incorporates the authentic but w/a twist. Really good.

Excellent cookbook Apr 07, 2010
By Laura in BC
Being new to Tex-Mex cooking, although not new to chili (I'm a chili judge and certified barbecue judge), I wanted a cookbook that would teach me the fundamentals of Tex-Mex cooking and would provide lots of recipes using ingredients I have at home or can get easily. Usually when I buy a cookbook there are two or three recipes in it that I want to try. This cookbook offers lots of attractive recipes and I can't wait to try some of them.
