About Frijoles puercos
Frijoles Puercos are a rich, savory dish from Mexican cuisine, known for their creamy texture and bold flavors. This hearty recipe starts with cooked pinto or black beans, which are mashed and fried with ingredients like lard or vegetable oil. Typical additions include shredded cheese, chorizo, bacon, jalapeños, and spices such as garlic and cumin, creating a robust taste. While the beans themselves are a good source of fiber, protein, and essential nutrients, the extra fats and processed meats can make the dish calorie-dense and high in sodium. To enjoy a healthier version, substitutions like olive oil or lean turkey sausage can be made, reducing saturated fat and cholesterol. Frijoles Puercos are often served as a side dish or dip, bringing a delicious touch to meals while offering a mix of indulgence and nourishment inherent to traditional Mexican fare.
