Sinterklaas will be back in our country in mid-November, but what does Sinterklaas actually eat in Spain? We checked that out through the Pieten! That's why we make Pisto con Huevos today, a Spanish stew that Saint Nicholas loves to eat. It's vegetarian, so with lots of delicious fresh vegetables and eggs. Easy to make and very tasty, especially when served with freshly baked bread!
