About Flautas mexicanas de carne

Flautas Mexicanas de Carne are a traditional Mexican dish featuring tortillas tightly rolled around a savory meat filling, typically shredded beef or chicken, and then fried until crisp and golden. This street food favorite is celebrated for its satisfying crunch and rich, smoky flavors. Commonly served with toppings such as sour cream, shredded lettuce, cheese, and salsa, flautas can be paired with beans or rice for a complete meal. While delicious, the frying process makes them higher in fat and calories compared to other preparation methods. To enjoy a lighter version, baking instead of frying is a healthier alternative. Flautas often include protein from the meat, offering essential nutrients, though the addition of fresh vegetables as toppings can increase fiber intake. As with many Mexican dishes, they represent a balance of indulgence and adaptability to personal dietary needs.
