This favorite Chilean sandwich from Chef Ruth Van Waerebeek is indeed a meal in a bun. You get meat, vegetables and fruit, all seasoned with traditional herbs and spices and spiked with jalapeno peppers. Another Chilean favorite is The Churrasco o Lomito - thin slices of marinated, sauteed beef or pork loin (lomito), topped with sliced tomatoes, avocado spread and mayonnaise. You can find thin sliced chuck or top round for this sandwich in most meat cases, or have the butcher slice it for you.

Brazilian Collards

Living In: Westminster, Colorado, USA

Spicy, tangy collard greens accented with black pepper bacon, cayenne pepper and vinegar are a big deal in Brazil. Here is my recipe. Since bacon fat is an essential part of this recipe don't drain it during any of the steps! I say that if your veggies are fattening then eat a lighter main dish!

Rabbit Stew with Coconut Cream

Submitted by: YAELIE24

This is an old recipe that comes from Columbia. My family loves when I cook this. Rabbit meat is very low in fat and can be dry tasting, so it marries well with coconut cream. It is best to cook the rabbit gently till it is falling off the bone. Serve with rice.
