About Gordita of beans
Gordita of Beans is a beloved staple of Mexican cuisine, celebrated for its hearty flavor and simplicity. This delight features a thick, soft corn masa shell that's griddled to perfection and stuffed with creamy, seasoned beans, often pinto or black beans. While variations may include toppings like cheese, salsa, or meats, the basic version centers on the wholesome, protein-packed beans. Rich in dietary fiber, these legumes support digestion and can help maintain energy levels. The masa base, made from corn, is naturally gluten-free and offers essential vitamins like niacin. While Gorditas of Beans are a nutritious choice, they can be high in sodium or calories, depending on added ingredients and cooking methods. Opting for fresh, homemade salsa and limiting fried accompaniments can make this dish even healthier. Overall, it's a satisfying blend of traditional flavor and beneficial nutrients for a balanced diet.
