About Manioc with cheese and ham

Manioc with Cheese and Ham is a flavorful dish rooted in Latin American cuisine, where manioc (also known as cassava) serves as a versatile staple. This comforting recipe combines cooked or mashed manioc with gooey melted cheese and savory slices of ham, typically layered or mixed for a rich, indulgent experience. Manioc provides a natural source of carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and key vitamins like B6, while being gluten-free and suitable for many dietary preferences. However, the addition of cheese and ham increases the calorie and fat content, making moderation important for those watching their intake. This dish offers a balanced blend of creamy textures and hearty flavors, perfect as a side or standalone meal. While not the healthiest option due to its high sodium and saturated fat content from the ham and cheese, it's a delightful treat that showcases the ingenuity of Latin American comfort food.
