About Frijoles molidos
Frijoles Molidos, or mashed beans, are a staple in Latin American cuisine, especially in countries like Guatemala, El Salvador, and Mexico. Typically made from black or pinto beans, this dish involves cooking the beans until tender, then blending or mashing them with seasonings such as garlic, onion, and salt. Often prepared with vegetable oil or lard, Frijoles Molidos are versatile and served as a side dish, dip, or filling for burritos and pupusas. Rich in plant-based protein and fiber, Frijoles Molidos support digestion and help maintain energy levels. They’re also a good source of iron, folate, and antioxidants from the beans. However, the preparation method impacts healthiness—versions made with excess lard or oil may have a higher fat and calorie content. Opting for healthier oils or minimizing added fats can make this traditional dish a nutritious option for any meal.
