Moros y cristianos (disambiguation)

Moros y cristianos, ("Moors and Christians" in Spanish) may stand for:

  • A festival celebrated in some towns and cities of Spain which commemorates the Reconquista; see Moros y Cristianos.
  • A children's game played in the Philippines, similar to Cops and Robbers or Cowboys and Indians in the United States. This game must have come to the Philippines after the conquest by the Spanish after 1521, where the Moros are the indigenous Muslims who came to Southeast Asia a century before the Spanish exploration of the New World.
  • A Cuban recipe for black beans and rice, presumably because the black beans represent the Moors and the white rice represents the Christians.
