 A perfect tipycal dish: Juane

There are a variety of typical foods in the jungle, but why is juane so famous?

It is very famous because the jungle has a patronal feast whichis a tradition, where everyone prepares their juanes with enthusiasm.

The patronal feast is called San Juan and is celebrated on June 24 every year. People begin to prepare their Juanes days before the 24th and in the city you can observe various activities such as typical dances, clothing sales, food sales, beauty pageants, among others.

So, next I am going to mention the ingredients that it has:

• Rice
• Chicken
• Egg
• Olive
• Bijao leaf
• Condiments

People usually eat their juanes with chicha de jora, which is also a typical drink of the jungle.

MY EATING HABITS

Hi! I´m going to write about my eating habits. I´m from Iquitos and everyone know that here we usually eat so delicious. 

In the morning, I usually eat fried plantain with egg, it´s my favourite. If there isn´t, I make coffe to eat with bread or Yogurth with cereal. 

For lunch, I usually make roasted chicken with "patacones" or Alfredo noodles, it´s my favourite. I don´t usually eat rice, because I consider isn´t and take a long time to prepare.

For dinner, I usually eat fast food, like chicken , pizza, tacos, because it´s faster. My classes don´t let me make my dinner, so, I have to call to the restaurant.
