Love of Food

Food

How many of you love and enjoy a delicious plate of food that just brings a smile to your face. I have many of those moments. One of the things that brings’ great joy to my life is food. I love food and I am blessed to have an amazing group of aunts that cook my most favorite dish in the world. My mom does not cook my favorite dish not because she is evil but because she says it is very hard to make this recipe. My favorite food in the whole world is Chile Rellenos. Now if you say to yourself chile rellenos sound familiar. Chile rellenos are stuffed bell peppers. My parent’s family is from Guatemala so I love Guatemalan chile rellenos’ which are different from other stuffed bell pepper recipes from South America, Central America and Mexico. Chile rellenos has the power to bring great childhood memories flooding back. I remember spending long summer days lounging in Guatemala and enjoying my grandmothers amazing chile rellenos. A hot cup of chocolate and a delicious juicy chile relleno  was always my favorite when I was young. I have even snuck in a chile relleno in my bag through Guatemalan security at the airport. As I grow older I find myself connecting food to great memories. What food brings back a great memory in your life?
