What Is A Traditional Brazilian Meal?
A traditional Brazilian meal consists of rice and beans (called “feijão”), accompanied by some kind of protein such as beef, chicken, pork or fish. It is served with salads, vegetables, and sometimes a side dish of cassava or sweet potatoes. Popular Brazilian dishes include “feijoada” (a stew made with black beans, meat, and sausages), “moqueca” (a seafood stew), and “churrasco” (a barbecue-style meal of grilled meat). Brazilian cuisine is also heavily influenced by indigenous, African, and European cultures, resulting in a diverse range of flavors and dishes.
