We’re pleased to share this collection of our favorite recipes, sure to become favorites for you as well at $12.95 (plus tax, shipping and handling). Please contact the office at (210) 922-3218 or loscompadres@sbcglobal.net regarding wholesale orders.

Also included:

• Special information section on chiles
• Historically accurate Spanish Colonial dinner menu and recipes
• Fascinating factoids about the history of the San Antonio Missions

From Stuffed Jalapeño Peppers to Carne Guisada to Mexican Wedding Cookies – you can now enjoy the flavors of the missions anytime and anywhere.

After trying one of these recipes from our cookbook, you’re sure to order A Taste of the Missions for yourself and all your friends.

Proceeds of this cookbook benefit Los Compadres, the official friends group of the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park. Each year, Los Compadres funds high-priority projects that enhance and preserve the Park. Book proceeds will be used for preservation, restoration, development, and education projects at each of the four mission sites and related historic irrigation systems.
