I was looking thru a little cookbook/magazine put out by Ortega in '97, "Authenic Family-Style Mexican Cooking" yesterday and realized I had made almost every recipe in the book. That got me to wondering if I had ever made every recipe in one of my other books/magazines. (can't think of one) This is one of those 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" publications and has 60 recipes in it, so it's not a humongeous thing. But, I was still surprised at how many I had made.
Anyone else have a favorite book they've made everything or almost everything from??
My favorites from this book - still - are three I make quite often (and it takes a lot for me to repeat dishes):
Caesar Salad with Cilantro & Green Chile Dressing (altho haven't made this since we all made the Chix Roulade with the salad, so this one may slide down the scale a little...)
Shrimp Tostadas
and all time favorite flan - Cream Cheese Flan!!
