Good to know

How long do these take?

Half are done in about 18 minutes. The quickest is around 8 minutes and the longest about 55 minutes, so there is something here whether you have a spare hour or twenty minutes.

Are these authentic Mexican recipes?

No, and we do not claim they are. These are dishes built on Mexican ingredients and technique by the Delicious kitchen, which is why the pages say Mexican-style rather than Mexican. They are written to taste right and to work in a home kitchen, not to be a record of traditional cooking.

Is every recipe here vegan?

Every recipe in this collection is written without ingredients that break a vegan diet. We cannot vouch for the brands in your cupboard or for cross-contamination in your kitchen, so check labels as you normally would.

How many calories are in these?

Most land between 349 and 772 calories a serving. Every recipe shows its own calories plus protein, carbs and fat, calculated per serving rather than per batch.
