MY EATING HABITS

For breakfast, I usually eat bread with eggs or sausages and a cup of coffee or quacker. When I'm late, I just eat cereal with yogurt. I have lunch with my family at 1:30 p.m. We usually eat Creamy Chicken, it's a shredded chicken prepared curry-style in a tick sauce made with cream, ground walnuts, cheese, and yellow pepper. Stir-fry beef is one of our favorite lunches. Tender strips of beef are marinated in soy sauce and add to onions, tomatoes, aji chillies, and other spices. We drink lemon soda, too.

For dinner, I rarely eat junk food but I like tacos and roasted chicken, the latter is peruvian soul food😍 I have a cup of tea at night.
