In October, I attended a cooking class that our church here sponsored.  The purpose of the class was to explore a possible solution to the poor nutrition in many of the tribal settings of Mexico.<\/p>\n

A professional cook (I don’t know her name.  We all called her "Maestra," which means teacher) came to my friend’s house (Liliana, the associate pastor’s wife) and taught us how to make every imaginable delicious treat using soy beans.  We learned how to take raw soy beans and process them and cook them.  We made soy milk (a zillion times better than the soy milk you can get in a carton), soy cheese (basically tofu), soy chorizo (chorizo is a Mexican-style sausage), soy patties, soy candy, peanut butter with soy, a soy drink similar to horchata, soy sweet bread, soy flour, and I just don’t remember everything else!<\/p>\n

This church is very missions-minded, and the main reason they sponsored this event was for the purpose of helping my parents answer some nutritional needs in the Guarijio tribe where they work as missionaries.  I was thrilled to be able to be a part, and I tucked away as much knowledge as I could recall so that someday I can hopefully extend this blessing to whatever tribe we have the privilege of working with.  And of course, I learned a TON of Spanish with 15 women talking at ninety miles and hour for about 7 hours! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
