 THE TASTY JUANE

Juane is very rich and varied Peruvian gastronomy, with a fragrance and flavor of the jungle. I say it this way because it is a typical food of the jungle region of Peru. The Juane is consumed in memory of Juan The Baptist during the feast of San Juan that is celebrated in different cities of the jungle region. Basically the Juane is a combination that is made to the rice, chicken pieces, boiled egg and olives are also added, everything is wrapped in bijao leaf and cooked in a pot with boiling water. Besides that it is delicious there are types of Juanes.

MY EATING HABITS 

Hi, I'm Cindy as you know and I'm from Peru. In the morning, I usually first eat some fruit or drink juice and after a few hours I drink coffee accompanied with bread and cheese. I like that combination and the taste my mother and I share.
 For lunch we eat rice with chicken stew or it depend if my mother or my brother are up to cooking something different and of course I hope to learn to cook soon for myself to prepare the lunch. At dinner my family and I do not eat much and it is up to each of us to prepare whatever that want, personally only drink milk with cereal or a cookie during virtual classes. There are also times when we have dinner away from home.
