great purchase

Book is like new...did not expect such a nice item for such a great price. Thank you! Can’t wait to try some of these wonderful recipes.

Outstanding community cookbook

This all volunteer effort benefiting the Roswell Symphony is an outstanding book to be savored and enjoyed for years to come. The recipes are wonderful examples of Southwestern cuisine at its best, both gourmet and everyday fare. The art work is provocative and unique to the Southwest, featuring some of todays finest working Southwestern artists. The UFO section (Ungourmet and Unusual Food Offerings) is done with tongue in cheek. Recipes for "Twilight Zone Pinto Bean Fudge", "Crash Site Chicken Chowder" and "The Great Cover Up Barbeque Sauce" are not only delicious but fun and amusing. Dion Crosby, former Executive Director of the UFO Museum wrote the forward for this section presenting data on the "1947 Roswell Incident".An abundance of bean, grain and rice recipes (try the Black Bean Torta), inventive ways with fresh vegetables and pastas with a southwestern twist as well as different and unusual meat recipes including game and ostrich are all wonderful and original.In my opinion, this is one of the best community cookbooks to be published in a long time; one everyone can enjoy, cook from, and just read for pleasure.
