The structure is always the same – a fresh juice, a bowl of fruit and a main course (typically tapioca) – but the individual elements may vary. I get some of the stuff from a street market that takes place two streets from my apartment every Thursday, and the rest is delivered by a local organic farmer, also on Thursdays
Ingredients:
Mango juice. Different every day, from the juice of a single fruit to a combination of leaves, roots and fruits.
Tapioca with tomato and green leaves (could also be a yam boiled with salt).
Chopped (but could be whipped) papaya and banana with Brazilian nut farofa on top.
Coffee.
