Bosnia: Cevapcici

Bosnia: Cevapcici (Grilled lamb and beef meatballs)
Delicious meat ball made from ground beef and ... pork. Recipe said we should use lamb or, for non-muslims, pork. Since we are non-muslims, we went with the pork. The only spics in sweet paprika, so the taste is very mild. It tasted somewhat like a hamburger. Also reminded us of a Brazilian-Arabic kibe. We had it with pita bread, cabbage, and zuchinni,

We spent the morning playing a geography game and we are getting pretty good about locating all the balcan countries!

Belize: Ganache

Belize: Ganache

The ganache is related to the Mexican food we see in Colorado: a flour tortilla topped with refried beans, veggies, and cheese. IN this case th eveggies were green cabagge and carrots. The main difference is that vinegar is sprinkled over it, and limes are served on the side so you can squeeze them. The final result is very tangy, and very good!
