Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated in the United States between September 15 and October 15. It pays tribute to the generations of Hispanic Americans who have influenced our society in a positive way. To celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month, I partnered with Rumba® meats and will be giving away twenty wonderful cookbooks! The books are comprised of a collection of traditional recipes from twelve different Latin American countries, created by twelve influencers, all featuring Rumba® Meats products.

My Lengua en Salsa Criolla (Colombian-Style Tongue in Creole Sauce) recipe is one of the recipes in the cookbook titled “Recetas con Raices” or “Recipes with Roots”. There are many variations of Lengua en Salsa Criolla, depending on the region and even the family that prepares it. This is my grandmother’s recipe and it’s very easy to make and full of flavor.
Best of all perhaps, you can make a difference! By purchasing Rumba Meats® during Hispanic Heritage Month, you will be supporting La Cocina, whose mission is to help low income food entrepreneurs by providing them affordable commercial kitchen space, technical assistance and access to market opportunities.

To enter the GIVEAWAY, please leave a comment on this post with your favorite Latin dish.The giveaway is valid for those 18 and over who reside in the United States.Giveaway ends October 15, 2018 and I will email the winners!

I love enchiladas rojas.

I learned how to cook Argentinian style empanadas from my mom even though she is Colombian. But it was Sonu we learned living in Buenos Aires when I was young. Now it's a family tradition and my tween boys have learned how to make them. It's a household favorite for sure!

My husband and I have been trying your recipes for the past 2 years as we prepare to adopt our son. So far I've really enjoyed Ajiaco, but I'm excited for all the rest of the delicious recipes that we will be trying!

I was so confident it was ceviche until I read the comments and realized on a chilly morning Ajiaco and sancocho sound amazing! Impossible to pick one favorite in a culture with rich traditions and options, but I will stick with ceviche. Seafood close to the ocean cannot be beat!
