★★★★★ This is truly a visit into Annette’s kitchen! The recipes are amazing and are a reflection of the love one is shown when eating at Annette’s house. I am so blessed to have her as a friend and a mentor in preparing favorite New Mexican dishes with this cookbook. My family is so proud to have the recipes they have loved eating, available to make in their own kitchens, just like Auntie ‘Nette makes.
