Costco Frozen Pupusas are a convenient take on the traditional Salvadoran dish, known for their hearty flavor and satisfying texture. Pupusas are thick corn tortillas filled with a variety of fillings; these typically include seasoned beans, gooey cheese, and occasionally pork. Made from masa harina, a finely ground corn flour, pupusas are naturally gluten-free. While offering a good amount of protein and fiber from the beans, and calcium from the cheese, they can also be high in sodium and fats depending on the filling composition. Perfectly portioned for easy heating, these pupusas are ideal for a quick and authentic taste of Central American cuisine. Pair them with a side of curtido (pickled cabbage slaw) for a more balanced and nutrient-rich meal.
