I need to make a Mexican dish for my Spanish class. I want to stick with something simple. I also need the recipe. Tacos, tortillas and rice are all ready taken. So is burritos. Most of the simple things are taken. So dose anyone have a good idea? I can make a dessert if I want as well!
I need to make a Mexican dish for school! Help Please!?

How about a dessert?
Flan
Buñelo con Platano Macho
Churros
Torrejos Con Cajeta
Or a drink
Agua Fresca (any fruit will do)
Horchata (rice water. it reminds me of milk after a bowl of cinnamon toast crunch)
Jamaica (pronounced Ha-my-cuh) Hibiscus flower water... sooo yummy)
*be careful, some of the recipes listed here are Tex Mex... not Mexican!

Make empanadas!
It's shredded meat and cheese filling that is folded put into a pocket kind of like a dumpling or potsticker, but larger, and then fried. It's delicious and good for preparing and bringing somewhere because it's all contained in the crust like a hot pocket.
I'm not sure if the filling involves cheese or if I just made that up, anyway google empanadas.
