Project Food: Day 8

Breakfast: a reprise of dinner from the night before, Chinese rice with a slice of bread :) And oatmeal to drink.
 
 
Lunch: This was a special birthday lunch last Saturday for Yorbany's birthday :) Rice and beans with ground beef patties (hamburgers), French fries and salad. We did lunch to celebrate her birthday because all the big kids were going to church in the evening and we weren't going to be able to all sit together otherwise.

 
Dinner: Kind of a mixture of leftovers with add-ins. Rice and beans with spaghetti and French fries with a maduro stuck in there too. We have been out of plantains the last few days so you haven't seen them much in the food but usually they are a bigger staple. When the plantains are ripe they are fried and become sweet and caramelized and when they are green they are fried in two ways to make tajadas and tostones. Tajadas are maybe my favorite- sliced thinly the plantains are fried and made into chips.
