Can't say what meal here is my fave, but I can tell you which has the most memorable presentation. Just some rice, ground beef, hard boiled eggs, olives, tomatoes and parsley can become a fun activity for all (and a great icebreaker if you like me are challenged when it comes to interacting with children). First, you fill a small bowl with beef sandwiched in between two layers of rice. Pack it in, so that when you dump it on your plate, you now have a canvas to create a face on! Can't wait to try this with my nephews.
Now what to drink? Chicha Morada is a super common beverage in Peru made by boiling purple corn, cinnamon sticks, pineapple rind, lime and sugar. Like blueberries, purple corn is loaded with antioxidants. Bonus.

I usually pass on punch, but to say no gracias to this stuff, can't be done. |

Nothing goes to waste. The used corn is dried and fed to the rabbits. |
Thanks! Sounds fun. I want to see a picture of some of those roof dogs you said were all over town.
