You can buy mexican hot chocolate, popular in the mexican/spanish culture. Nestle is the most popular kind. You find it with all the other hot chocolate. I know you can get it at walmart, or at least the ones around here have it. It comes in a yellow, hexigon shaped box. You make it just like you would regular hot chocolate, except I think it comes in disks.

You could always do salsa and chips, quesadillas, spanish rice, guacamole, tacos, or you can find a spanish cookbook layin around.

Hmm, how about mexican rice? Go to your local grocery store, and I'm sure you could pick up a few boxes of it. It wont take long to cook it all. Hope I helped! Have fun!
