Latin America
Most Latin American people eat a mixed diet of rice, beans, meat and protein-rich whole grains like quinoa (pronounced key-nwa), a Latin American specialty you can find in your grocery store.
Maize, or corn as we know it, is an important food all over Latin America. You can find maize in many foods, whether it’s pounded into a flour-like powder and made into a tortilla or cooked in a tangy soup.
Make a Hot Bowl of Locro (pronounced low-crow)
Soup of all kinds is popular in Ecuador. It’s often eaten as the first course at lunch, the biggest meal of the day. With the help of an adult, try making this traditional potato soup at home.
