My food-day started early and with black coffee, hot and no sugar, as usual.

For breakfast, I made cheese and cheese & ground ham empanadas. I was afraid they wouldn't fry up nice and puffy, since I used yellow corn meal, which I never do when it comes to empanadas. But they turned out better than ever. Many of you already know that, I know.

I made a little hole in the cheese ones to differentiate them from the others. This is our custom.

The best part of eating a hot and tasty empanada is the end. As you bite into it, you find more and more of the filling because it slides to the bottom while you drain the oil left over from the frying.

I also served coffee with milk, which I seldom drink. I had almost forgotten the creamy texture.

When I took the beef ribs out to thaw for dinner, I remembered that I didn't have any cabbage for the salad I wanted to go with them. So in the afternoon we went shopping at Rio Supermarket, and I took the opportunity to take pictures to upload my participation in the Season 3 of Steemfoods Shopping List Event.

Here's what I bought.

If you wish to know about the prices, you may want to visit my post and check the table I made with prices on bolivars, USDs, and Steems.

...And this is the salad.

It's actually really simple. I mix green and red cabbage and make a dressing with my homemade garlic mayonnaise, salt and sugar to taste. It pairs fantastically with beef ribs.

I served the beef ribs and the salad with boiled yucca.

If you eat meat, I don't need to tell you:

After that super meal, I had no room for anything else the rest of the day.

Except for coffee.

And this was my food-day. I hope you had a good one, too.
