Gallo Pinto

Gallo Pinto (= spotted rooster) is the national breakfast here. It's rice with black beans and other vegetables. It often comes with an egg on top and bread aside.
One might wonder why it's called "rooster" if there is no chicken in it... the reason is that it's cooked early in the morning when the rooster crows.
It's a very rich breakfast! You won't be hungry until lunch. :-)
