Learn how to cook a spanish meal- check.

This may turn into a food blog. I have been progressively taking pictures of all the cool food we get to try and I'm just realizing how many I've taken...

I told Conchi that I really like to cook so this morning she pulled me out of bed and showed me how to make a cold soup similiar to gazpacho. She doesn't have recipes for anything so I needed to watch how she made it. I am so excited to make this at home for the family!!

It is the easiest soup I think I've ever seen, it sounds weird but it's so good! It's garlic, tomato, oil, salt, and bread pureed together and served cold. Weird right? Whatever, it tastes so good I can't even be mad about it. It can be served with croutons, hard boiled egg, peppers, onion, cucumber, tomato, or deli meat. We had all of them with ours.

This is what it looks like. It's pretty much thick tomato soup.

For dessert- flan! I tried to make it at home before I left and it was a disaster. A for attempt, but it was so bad. Grady and Riley made me feel better by at least eating a piece of it, but you can admit it- it was terrible. Flan is a very rich dessert. It's just milk, eggs, and creme with carmel on it so you can about imagine how heavy it is. I'm hoping Conchi will show me how to make this. It's just so pretty!




I also get to cook for Conchi. I'll make some Pinterest recipes for her :) I can't wait!
