Gallo Pinto

Pronounced “guyo pinto,” this is the traditional breakfast for much of Central America, but specifically Costa Rica.  The name translates to “Spotted Chicken” just for interest sake.

This is a dish which fills you up and keeps you going all morning.

Chili con Carne

This is our chili recipe which we make up into monstrous size batches and freeze for easy meals later.  It is by no means written in stone.  This is a base upon which can be added or subtracted, of which the latest edition is from July of ’24.

Salsa Lizano

This is the customary sauce that is used in Gallo Pinto, the traditional dish of Costa Rica.  I had to make this myself, as it was unavailable at the stores.  Luckily, there was a Mexican store that imports the peppers here locally, as they are a bloody fortune online.

Fajita Mix

This fajita mix is simple, can be made early and let stand until needed, or used in various ways for a few days. We have also doubled this and froze half – minus the rice of course.
