I think all of the existing English translations are still covered by
copyright so it's unlikely you'll find a complete text on the internet. You
can find many examples of individual recipes and adaptations however. Just
do a Google search on "Apicius".

As a non-Latin speaker (are there any of them left?) you should find it a
lot more than a bit difficult. For someone who minored in Latin in college
and holds a teaching certificate in the language (me), it's pretty hard
going just to read it. Apicius was not the most lucid of authors.
