006 - May the Mac and Cheese Be with You feat. Mighty Mangu and Friends

Hola mi gente, welcome to the “The Aguacate Chronicles”, I’m your host Giraldo Luis Alvaré. Gracias for listening.

Last episode, ceviche, mango salad, pineapple, fish and cornbread provided a fresh and wholesome take to comfort food you can enjoy any time of the day. Aguacate, platanos, arroz, tostones, frijoles negros keep making their point to be recognized as staple dishes. Tienes hambre, you hungry? We got you covered.

Up next on the menu we got baked mac and cheese, fried bread, blutwurst (bloot-worst), Vish-e-swaz, pernil, black beans and rice, cooked up rice, roast bake, mangu, queso frito, arroz con leche y pudin de pan. Didn’t I mention we have plenty of options? Remember to leave room for dessert.

These delicious foods get highlighted on audio clips featuring Founder and CEO of Black Girl Nerds, Jaime Broadnax; Artist, Painter, and Muralist, Albertus Joseph; Artist, Producer and Educator, Keith Salandy aka K Banger; and Vice President of Audience Strategy at AARP, Yvette Peña

So cojelo con take it easy. There’s enough to go around. Buen provecho. Enjoy the show.
