Amazon.com Review
Sharing a title with that of her TV Food Network show, Ingrid Hoffman's Simply Delicioso offers 125 Latin-American recipes that reflect her food-loving vivacity. Dishes like Tamarind-Glazed Baby Back Ribs, Salmon Crevice with Mango, and Chipotle Tamale Pie give some idea of her savory way with the traditional Latin repertoire. Hoffman also includes formulas for sweets like Dulce de Leche Cookie Sandwiches and Passion Fruit Mousse, and for and drinks, such as Tart Banana Crush. These are instantly attractive recipes that cooks should have no trouble preparing once ingredients are on hand. (Hoffman provides a handy pantry of necessary items.) She also offers anecdotes and Chica Tips; both help limn her as a happy, serious eater as well as practiced cook. With color illustrations, the book is just the thing when the urge for big flavor strikes. --Arthur Boehm

 Fabulous Combinations! May 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am not a cookbook buyer/owner. After watching many of Ingrid Hoffmans' shows, I was waiting for her cookbook to come out. I was very pleased, as well as my husband with the tasty combinations of food. Some unique combinations for the Flavor Packed Peppers were mind boggling at first: Green Olives, apples, tomatoes?!? - But WOW, now my husband and families' favorite. I will never make stuffed peppers with rice again!
Some recipes are simple food prep, others a bit more work. I just simplified all of them and used the food processor for most of the recipes. Her recipes were simple enough to omit items and/or substitute items. I didn't have some of the items and improvised easily. Remember cooking is supposed to be fun.
Her recipes were totally health conscious! Most seasonings for the food were vegetables and fresh/dried herbs. I was so pleased with this, I bought the cookbook for my father for Father's Day. I wrote in notes and comments about all the recipes I already tried. Wish she had another cookbook out already.
Following the Latin American Trend May 22, 2008

Ingrid Hoffmann is right on trend with one of the hottest eating trends in American - delicious foods with a Latin American twist. Her dialogue throughout the book is bubbly, fresh and conversational. Her detailed explanation of the various foods in her pantry will be very helpful for people who are not as familiar with Latin American ingredients. If you are looking for a true authentic Latin American cuisine then you may want to choose a different cookbook, but if you are looking for a fun Latin American fusion cookbook, Simply Delicioso is a excellent choice.

The recipes are well presented and the pictures are very pretty!
She made adaptations to "tradicional" latin recipes to be prepared by Americans or latins in USA.
Well done!
