If you only know one thing about eating in Spain, it's probably that they eat reeeeally late so they can accommodate a nice, long nap in the middle of the day. This is because the Spanish have it all figured out. So it's no surprise that their food is wonderful too. And while you're probably familiar with at least a few Spanish classics like gazpacho and paella, what you may not know is that Spanish cuisine can also be incredibly easy and quick to make. It's perfect for a Friday night date at home when you've got a short window between getting home and the moment you're too hungry to deal with getting food on the table. Plus, you'll have plenty of time to get ready to go out dancing 'til the wee hours afterwards. The Spanish would want it that way.
