4. MY THEME IS MEXICAN FOOD

5. WHY? I am going to make chicken burritos, this is Mexican. I like Mexican food because it has a range of ingredients so it has many flavours in whatever you are making or going to eat. The reason I decided to make this because I like all of the ingredients that are in them. There are also many flavours inside a burrito. This is an healthy thing to make because it contains chicken which is protein and vegetables for example tomatoes and lettuce.
