Brattleboro: Each month, Fun Foods focuses on a different country in order to share their food and culture with kids. Colombia is our featured country for January. We have chosen Colombia for its rich and diverse culinary traditions, and because it is the birthplace of our own Lizi Rosenberg (BFC Education Outreach Coordinator). Join Lizi to explore the native foods of Colombia by making soft, pillowy empanadas. The first will be sweet: filled with cheese and bocadillo (a paste made of guavas and sugar). The second empanada will be savory: filled with chicken and olives. While cooking together, kids will learn about the culture and language of Colombia.
