Tostadas

A recipe from a Guatemalan friend: Guatemalan Tostadas Salsa: 8 ripe tomatoes or 2 cans diced tomatoes 1 green onion 1 clove garlic Cut tomatoes into wedges, cut up green onion, peel and smash garlic. Put into a pan and cook on medium heat until thoroughly cooked. Add salt to taste. Meat: 1 lb. hamburger 1/4 cup chopped onion 1 small can tomato sauce 2 whole bay leaves Salt and pepper to taste Combine in frying pan. Cook all ingredients. Simmer meat in this sauce. To serve: Spread salsa generously on tostada. Add a layer of the meat mixture. Top with cheese. Enjoy.

Favorite Guatemalan Food

I totally love any Guatemalan food, having grown up with it, but I must say my two favorites are Plantains with Mole, and Rellenitos (plaintains stuffed with black beans)
