Day+of+the+Dead+Food+Day+Information

= El Día de los Muertos = El Dia de los Muertos is a holiday celebrated in Mexico on November 1st and 2nd. This is a holiday where family and friends gather to celebrate other family members who have passed away. In a few weeks we will be learning more about this holiday and its traditions.

We will be having a food day on Monday November 2nd. Each student needs to sign up for a dish to bring to class. If you are not to keen on cooking we will be needing drinks, plates, and cups. But, I encourage you to try and bake. Here is a list of some foods that are especially eaten during this holiday. If you have any other ideas that is completly fine as long as it is a Spanish recipe.
 * Pan de muerto - a sweet bread which is especially made during this holiday
 * Colada morada - a spiced fruit porridge
 * Sugar skulls - a sugar candy shaped as a skull
 * Candied Pumpkin - similar to candied yams
