Summary: Loved every recipe so far!
Comment: I've been watching Simply Delicioso on TV the last couple of weeks and the recipes looked so good, I asked for the book for Xmas. I have tried 3 recipes so far, and all three have been easy to make and tasted out of this world. I have to admit that seeing the recipes prepared made following the written recipe more succesful, but the book is well presented and makes all of the food look very inviting. I hight recommend it.
