Flan. I have grown to love this over the years, although with my lactose issues, I can eat about two tablespoons before I die.
Arroz con Gandules. My great-aunt makes this soo good! And my mom recently tried it, and it came out awesome!
Pernil. OMG this STUFF. It's so rich and amazing.
Arroz con Pollo. My mom makes this so good.
Pasteles. I never used to like these, but two years ago at Christmas, I tried one again... and dude. T'was GOOD.
Beef Stew. My mom has such a great Puerto Rican stew recipe.
I finished Ender! (at like 12am. Curse you unputdownable book!) It was ammmazing! I kinda thought the aliens were going to be a big hoax or something. But Peter sparking a war so that he could write a peace treaty and take over was the best part.

OH GOSH YESSS. This post is such major win.
Puerto Rican food is so amazingly good and so under-appreciated. Pernil is the reason why I can never be a vegetarian....such a guilty pleasure. And OH pasteles are the food of the gods. They look NASTY, but taste DELICIOUS. (I'm hungry now.)
and oh gosh, Ender. I wish I was half as cool as Ender Wiggin.
Mmm, yes. That beef stew looks so good. Hey, what about tostones?? http://doscubanospigroasts.com/Images/Food/tostones5.jpg
I've never been a big fan of tostones... but i don't really like anything bananaish in the first place. I love how they smell cooking though! <3
