Parotas

Now this is real ‪‎vegan‬ Mexican‬ food,
Parotas, my aunt brought them from Mexico,
a side of beans and fresh homemade salsa.
Parotas are seeds of a beautiful tree.
Read the information on the tree.
Also the wood is used to make beautiful furniture.
Authentic‬ Mexican food is not full of meat,
in the center and south of the country we eat a lot of plants
‪Eat a tree, eat plants, save animals & our planet!

Parotas, beans & salsa = heaven!

Tree named Guanacaste, Caro Caro, or Elephant-ear tree
