Belizean Rice and Beans
This is from Just Food. I haven’t tried it yet. In Belize they use a small piece of salt pork in it and omit the salt. I think that could be very good. I have no idea how long it takes to make.
Belgian Hot Chocolate
This is adapted from a recipe by David Lebowitz. If you can’t find Belgian chocolate use another type, either way it should be high quality. I love Callebaut when I can find it , and rumor has it that Trader Joe’s Pound Plus bars are made by them, they are my back up bar for baking.
Carbonnade À La Flamande (Flemish Beef Stew)
This classic Belgian beef stew is known for its sweet-sour combination of caramelized onions and beer. Any dark Belgian-style ale would be a good choice here. As with most stews, the dish will taste even better a day or two after it’s made. From Food and Wine.

Waterzooi Van Vis – Flemmish Fish Stew
Similar to something I had in Brussels at a lunch spot. You stand at a bar and eat standing up. I didn’t speak any of the languages and the waiter just brought me the daily specials. It was about 3 degrees and no one seemed to mind the cold except me who had just spent 6 months in the tropics!
