Baleadas are a traditional Honduran dish known for their simplicity and flavor. This popular street food features a thick, soft flour tortilla folded over a filling of refried red beans, often accompanied by crema (a type of sour cream), crumbled cheese, and sometimes avocado or scrambled eggs for added variety. Originating in Honduras, baleadas are enjoyed as a staple meal, offering a balance of carbohydrates from the tortilla, protein and fiber from the beans, and fats from the crema or cheese. While baleadas are hearty and satisfying, their nutritional value depends on preparation methods and portion sizes—excessive amounts of cheese or crema can increase calorie content. However, the inclusion of beans makes them a source of essential nutrients, including iron and folate. For a healthier twist, whole wheat tortillas and additional vegetables can boost fiber and vitamins while maintaining their signature taste.
