This week, as part of the virtual Culinary Tour 2010, we travel to Colombia. I wanted to make some traditional specialties from this country and could think of no other source for the best authentic Colombian recipes than my friend Erica's excellent blog My Colombian Recipes. She has a lot of delicious recipes that I've bookmarked over the past year. As I was going to be preparing the Colombian specialties for Valentine's Day breakfast, I chose to make Pan de Yuca, a traditional Colombian bread made with yuca flour and cheese.
These yuca cheese breads turned out perfectly light, puffy, and absolutely scrumptious!

To accompany the yuca bread, I also made Erica's Chocolate en Leche de Coco, a heavenly Colombian-style hot chocolate prepared with coconut milk.

It was a very special and delicious breakfast! Thank you, Erica, for these excellent recipes!
