Changua is one of the most traditional breakfasts in Colombia, especially in Bogotá and the Cundiboyacense region. This milk and egg soup, served hot and accompanied by tostados (toasted bread or almojábanas), is a classic of Colombian cuisine that has been passed down through generations.

Its preparation is very simple: water is boiled with scallions, eggs are added, and then milk, creating a creamy and comforting mixture. It is served with fresh chopped cilantro and pieces of tostados, which add texture and flavor.

Changua is ideal for cold days or for a nutritious breakfast that provides energy. Its mild, milky flavor, with the fresh touch of cilantro and the crunch of tostados, makes it a unique experience.
