Distributing 2 million meals a year to the needy is a huge undertaking. To make it happen, Masbia needs many partners. Pati Jinich has been a frequent contributor to our past fundraisers, including the most recent Tzimmes campaign. Patti is the creator of the nationally aired Public Television series, called "Pati's Mexican Table," that is currently on its fifth season and was nominated for two James Beard Awards.

Pati Jinich has a mission. She’s out to prove that Mexican home cooking is quicker and far easier than most Americans think.

Her dishes are not blanketed with cheese, or heavy and fried, or based on complex sauces. Nor are they necessarily highly spicy. Surprising in their simplicity and freshness, they incorporate produce and grains. Most important, they fit perfectly into an everyday family cooking schedule and use just a handful of ingredients, most of which are already in your pantry. Many are homey specialties that Pati learned from her mother and grandmother, some are creative spins on classics, while others are not well known outside of Mexico.
