I have been following Lisa Fain's food blog for some time. One of my viewed recipes (from my own food blog) is her Tex-Mex Chili Gravy recipes. Not only is it super simple to make, but it's bursting with flavor. I'm not completely familiar with Tex-Mex cooking, but I my father's Mexican roots have played an influence on the way I cook at home. The biggest criteria I have, when I buy a cookbook is that I want photos. I want to see the finished product. This cookbook delivered that well, with full-color and well done food photography. I will update my review, once I begin to make some of the dozen, or so, recipes that leaped off the page and said "make me"! I'm always happy to support a food blogger.
