- bioText: MARCELA VALLADOLID grew up in Tijuana and jumped straight into a culinary life with her first job working at her aunt's cooking school in Baja, Mexico. She soon realized she wanted to pursue her growing love for food full time. After cooking school, Marcela eventually parlayed her classical training and skills to become a food editor at Bon Appétit magazine. Next she crossed into TV when she landed her own cooking show on Discovery en Español called Relatos con Sabor and was selected as one of the contenders on The Apprentice: Martha Stewart. In 2009, Marcela was given the chance to showcase her family recipes when she released her first cookbook titled Fresh Mexico: 100 Simple Recipes for True Mexican Flavor. Soon after her book release, she landed a dream job as the host of her own Food Network show, Mexican Made Easy, which aired for five seasons. Marcela released a second cookbook called Mexican Made Easy in 2011, a companion to her Food Network show and an entryway into authentic Mexican cuisine. She she was a long-time co-host of The Kitchen, the Emmy-nominated talk show on The Food Network and is currently a permanent judge on Best Baker in America, also on Food Network. Her latest book is Casa Marcela, released in 2017. She lives in San Diego, California.

February 20, 2017
In Valladolid’s latest cookbook, the Food Network host warmly welcomes readers into her new southern California home. Her two prior cookbooks (Mexican Made Easy and The Kitchen) focused on quick and easy Mexican home cooking; in contrast, this lushly photographed book brings the reader into Valladolid’s dream house (it even includes an essay from her interior designer) and the organic garden that provides much of the produce for her recipes. Valladolid has put together an inspiring blend of everyday recipes, along with more time-consuming dishes meant for special occasions. She offers up classics and “house favorite” dishes such as picadillo-stuffed jalapeño peppers; crispy potato and poblano tacos; and oxtail, bean, and chili stew. Some of her most interesting recipes are mash-ups of different cuisines, including huitla waffles, pork shoulder in morita-hoisin sauce, and Mexican ramen. Her healthy and nutritious recipes are balanced by luscious-looking dessert offerings, including a chocolate cajeta brownie pudding and an upside-down mango cake. For readers without a kohlrabi-filled garden or access to the markets in Tijuana (Valladolid frequently crosses the border for Mexican specialties), she usually recommends substitutions. Valladolid’s fans will enjoy reading this book as much as they enjoy cooking from it.

Starred review from May 15, 2017
Celebrity chef Valladolid (Fresh Mexico) hosted the popular Food Network series Mexican Made Easy and currently appears on the cooking-themed talk show The Kitchen. Here, she presents flavorful recipes drawn from her life on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, including crispy potato and poblano tacos, roasted cauliflower steaks with pickled jalapeno vinaigrette, red chile lamb stew, and strawberry layered tres leches cake. These dishes are more elegant than those in her previous cookbooks, perfect for cooks who enjoy entertaining. Throughout, Valladolid shares interesting stories (who knew she competed on The Apprentice), which touch on the joys and challenges of balancing career, family, and home ownership. VERDICT This personal collection of vibrant and varied foods will satisfy many readers. Valladolid's fans will hunger for more.
