About Mexican sandwich
A Mexican sandwich, commonly referred to as a torta, is a flavorful and hearty dish from Mexican cuisine. Served on a soft, crusty bolillo or telera roll, it is typically filled with a variety of ingredients such as beans, avocado, lettuce, tomato, onions, and protein options like grilled chicken, pork, beef, or scrambled eggs. Additional toppings often include creamy queso fresco, spicy salsa, and pickled jalapeños. Tortas are celebrated for their vibrant combination of textures and bold flavors. Nutritionally, tortas offer healthy components like fresh vegetables, lean protein, and fiber-rich beans. However, calorie content can vary based on preparation, with fried meats, mayonnaise, and cheese contributing to higher fat and calorie counts. For a balanced version, opt for grilled proteins, limit heavier condiments, and enjoy the fresh produce that makes this sandwich a distinctive and satisfying staple of Mexican cuisine.
