'''Platillo Moros y Cristianos''', ('''moors and christians''', '''moros''' or '''moro''') is the national dish of Cuba, their version of the [[Rice|rice]] and [[Beans|beans]] combination found throughout the Caribbean and in Brazil. It is also found in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, and expatriate communities of each of these cultures. It was introduced during the Nicaraguan Sandinista regime when both countries mixed culturally because of strong ties. The dish also takes after the name '''gallo pinto''', used in Nicaragua and Costa Rica. | '''Platillo Moros y Cristianos''', ('''moors and christians''', '''moros''' or '''moro''') is the national dish of Cuba, their version of the [[Rice|rice]] and [[Beans|beans]] combination found throughout the Caribbean and in Brazil.
