Some of the most common foods in Central America are Yucca Root, Plantains, Black Beans, and Chicken. Whether you are in Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama, or across the sea in Cuba you will find these foods flavored to the particular country. These foods are tasty, healthy, loaded with fiber, and relatively simple to cook.
Today, I took advantage of that simplicity. Here I prepared roasted chicken, boiled yucca root, platanos, and frijoles negros (AKA Black Beans).
