About Gordita chorizo

Gordita Chorizo is a savory Mexican dish that combines bold flavors with a satisfying texture. The "gordita," meaning "little fat one" in Spanish, is a soft, thick masa tortilla made with corn flour, traditionally cooked on a griddle. It is split open and filled with spiced chorizo sausage, known for its smoky, spicy profile, often complemented by toppings like lettuce, cheese, salsa, and sour cream. While rich in flavor, Gordita Chorizo can be high in sodium and fat due to the chorizo and additional toppings, but it also offers wholesome energy from the corn masa base. Often enjoyed as street food or a casual meal, Gordita Chorizo celebrates the essence of Mexican comfort cuisine. Health-conscious variations can include leaner fillings and fresh vegetable toppings to balance indulgence with nutrition.
