About Carne asada torta

A Carne Asada Torta is a flavorful Mexican sandwich that combines grilled, marinated beef with fresh and savory ingredients. It typically includes tender slices of carne asada, seasoned with citrus, garlic, and spices, layered on a soft bolillo or telera roll. Classic toppings include refried beans, avocado, lettuce, tomato, onion, jalapeños, and a spread of mayonnaise or sour cream. Originating from Mexico, this hearty dish is a staple of street food and casual dining. While it offers protein and fiber from the steak and vegetables, its calorie count can be substantial due to the rich marinade, added fats, and starchy bread. Ingredients like avocado provide healthy fats, but large portions or extra condiments may increase saturated fat or sodium levels. Customizing the toppings and serving size can help balance its nutritional profile for a flavorful yet mindful option.
