Ropa Vieja, meaning “old clothes” in Spanish is a traditional Cuban dish. It is typically made with beef, but I’ve also enjoyed it with duck. It’s served over rice and goes great with some platanitos maduros – sweet plantains for just under $2 per serving.

Black Beans and Rice are served as a side with basically every Cuban meal. Growing up we would eat them with mojo pork chops or a cuban steak. They're also great just on their own or with some plantains. I like to put the leftovers on tacos or in salads too!
