Cooking the Wild Southwest: Delicious Recipes for Desert Plants

I really like this book. I bought it because we have such an abundance of prickly pears growing in our yard, and it seemed like such a waste not to use them. I've used prickly pear recipes to make jam before, but her method of cleaning them to make syrup was so much easier! And I only got stuck twice, which is really awesome! The prickly pear sangria is fabulous and I'll make that a lot. I look forward to trying her other recipes. Recommend!

This was a gift for my dad and he loves it.

Living in the southwest, this book was a delight in several ways. It helped me hunt and harvest wild plants, then provided recipes. No longer need I watch local mesquite tree pods fall and find them a nuisence - grind them into flour and make some great pancakes. Prickly pears, tomatillo, native beans, all now add a variety to my diet.

My hubby is trying to learn all about what we can eat in our own backyard! We have already done a few of these recipes excellent for someone trying to learn self sufficiency and survival skills Thank you very much

I continually purchase cook books for my partner who loves to try new recipes. He researches the books first so is pleased with the books when he receives them. He's waiting to see what other books I can buy for him!

This is an awesome book . It arrived on time and in great condition. It was worth the money and can not wait until the prairie across the street comes alive with plants.

Very informative. Quite useful for people living in the Southwest. The author is the best. She knows her subject. I will enjoy trying her recipes.

Excellent book.
