Product Description
The next book in the series of Low-Fat & Fast cookbooks from the editors of Vegetarian Times magazine is Vegetarian Times Low-Fat & Fast Mexican.

Not the best but better than the rest!,
By Payal (Texas, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vegetarian Times Low-Fat & Fast Mexican (Paperback)
Definitely helped me get started on a few basic ones. Some salsa tips are great. I had a hard time finding some of the ingredients though. All said and done, it's a good value for money.

Excellent cookbook for fast, low-fat Mexican food!,
By K. Moody "Book Lover" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vegetarian Times Low-Fat & Fast Mexican (Paperback)
This is terrific cookbook! After reading the reviews below I had mixed fellings about spending the money on this book, but I am glad I did! Our family has tried numerous recipes from the cookbook and each one has been excellent. The ingredients and measurements are right on the mark and each dish leaves you wanting more. The Calabacita Vegetable Burritos, Mexican Rice and Peas, Vegetable and Brown Rice Burritos, and Risotto Burrito with Sweet Potato were excellent. Even my husband asked for seconds which is saying at lot! Try this book...you will enjoy it!

This book is a keeper,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vegetarian Times Low-Fat & Fast Mexican (Paperback)
I disgree with the reviewer from NYC. I've been cooking out of this book for a couple of months now and find the recipes easy and very tasty. Even my 17-year-old stepson really likes them. I've prepared Calabacita Vegetable Burritos, Eggplant and Red Bean Chilaquiles, Tamale Bean Pie, Portobello Burritos with Spinach and Goat Cheese, and Baked Tempeh Chilaquiles. OK, so they all don't take less than 30 minutes to prepare. I guess that's because I choose to chop, slice, and dice the veggies myself rather than use a food processor. I'm happy if dinner is on the table an hour after I get home from workThe other books in this series are also good--Low Fast and Fat and Low Fast and Fat Pasta. I also got the Low Fat and Fast Asian, which is a disappointment because it has so many weird ingredients that you can't pick up at the grocery store. But try the Low Fat and Fast Mexican--you'll like it! 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful:
