Honduran Foods
Have you ever been to a Mexican restaurant? Most likely, you would see the typical enchiladas, rice, and beans. It's interesting how the foods in Honduras are made. Breakfast for them in the mornings are baleada with veggies, avocado or ground beef, rice, beans, tortillas, and coffee. Baleadas are wheat flour tortillas stuffed with mashed fried beans. They are the most popular and original type of foods in Honduras. Lunch and dinner for them is kind of the same. Most men in Honduras would most likely eat dinner because they would go to work. Lunch for people there is pastelito(flour or corn tortilla) filled with beef or chicken. Dinner for them there is chicken, pork, or beef. They also have rise, mashed potatoes, or French fries with it. Thus, the food there is a little bit different than the food you see in Mexican restaurants'. Below here is a picture of Baleadas.
