Natalia Damian is a 2nd-year student majoring in Human Services. “This dish was meant to be super easy and fun to make. I wanted to show a recipe that people may not know of because it is not as common as tacos or tamales which are more popular Mexican foods. I wanted to express my culture by showing a meal that does not take up a lot of time.”
