In keeping with Hispanic tradition, Mexican Breakfast Cookbook celebrates the old saying, "Have breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper." In this case, the king will dine on frijoles refritos, molletes, huevos rancheros, and pan dulce. Mexican Breakfast Cookbook includes the traditional morning foods like Machaca Con Huevos, Huevos Motulenos, and Chiliquiles. And there are unusual foods which you may not think of for breakfast but are common in Mexico - like Menudo or Cactus Omelets. Mexican breads are included in all their glory. Some people have a sweet tooth especially in the morning and for them there rare recipes for Tecolote Cafe's Famous Cinnamon Rolls, Pear Bread, and Susan's Summer Fruit Crisp. As is traditional for all of Jacqueline Higuera McMahan's books, she ends with chocolate - a rich devil's food cake from a vintage 1932 recipe.
