Mel's Mex - Authentic Mexican RecipesIt's About Authenticity..... Many years have gone by since I had my first taste of Mexican Food. Coming from a Polish - American background, I was used to pierogi and kielbasa, etc. and all the good old American staples like meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Was I pleasantly surprised! Not only were foods prepared the old-fashioned way, using mostly all fresh ingredients, and little or no processed foods, but they were downright delicious! And so, I spent many hours going to the market with my in-laws, watching my mother-in-law cook and learning Spanish in a natural surrounding. What an experience! I hope that my recipes will impart the Joys of Authentic Mexican Cuisine to you! Every month I feature a "Recipe of the Month" from one of my books. The books contain many variations of salsas, tamales, enchiladas and tacos among others. The E-book contains many more and has several mole recipes, along with all the other recipes I have worked out between 2005, when the softcover book was published, and 2010. It also contains lots of photos in color. Please check our "recipe index" pages for a full listing of recipes. Mel and her Mother Mela are now working on a Polish cookbook!! The website is all finished, as are most of the recipes that will be in the e-book. We expect it to be finished in time for the Easter holidays. Please click on the screenshot below to view the website and a few recipes.
