Two new breakfast drinks I had and loved this week are Atole and a
Smoothie topped with Amaranto.
Some call Atole the traditional Mexican comfort
drink. It
is corn based and is typically served with tamales for
breakfast. Atole can also be prepared with rice, flour or
oatmeal in
place of the masa. I like it with a little brown sugar. Wonder why I’m wanting
to put brown sugar on everything here?
This
Raspberry smoothie is topped with Amaranto. Amaranto is a cereal with twice the
iron and four times more calcium than wheat. They also use Amaranto to coat
Mexican candy.
I
like it already.
Buen
Apetito!
