Lomo Saltado

Tuesday was Chito's dad Luis' birthday. Originally, we were going to have Luis come to our house for dinner. Unfortunately he was really busy at work and told us we would have to celebrate another day. I, however, wouldn't have that. Everyone deserves some sort of celebration on their actual birthday day. So Chito began cooking. Together we made Lomo Saltado, a delicious Peruvian dish (Chito's dad is from Peru). After we made all the food, we packed it up and drove to Heber. We set his dad's table and called him over to take a little break from work. Luis was so surprised. The Lomo Saltado tasted amazing and I was very impressed by Chito's skill to just throw it all together-no recipe needed. We then had apple pie a la mode for dessert. It was so great to spend time with Luis on his birthday, but not so great coming back to our house with the very strong smell of garlic....it's been a couple days now and I can still smell it!

What is your favorite birthday dish?
