About Carnita flautas

Carnita Flautas are a popular Mexican dish consisting of shredded pork wrapped in small flour or corn tortillas, tightly rolled and fried until golden and crispy. The filling typically features tender, seasoned carnitas infused with spices like cumin, chili powder, and garlic, which bring bold flavor to the dish. Flautas are often served with sides such as guacamole, sour cream, or salsa, adding layers of texture and taste. While they provide a source of protein from the pork and essential nutrients from additional toppings like avocado-based guacamole, they are also fried, making them high in calories and potentially unhealthy fats. Choosing baked or air-fried options can help reduce the calorie count and fat content. Flautas showcase the vibrant flavors of Mexican cuisine, offering a delicious and savory treat for those looking to indulge in traditional comfort food.
