About Pork and plantain and black bean arepa
The Pork and Plantain and Black Bean Arepa is a delicious fusion inspired by Latin American cuisine, particularly Venezuelan and Colombian traditions. This dish features a golden, cornmeal-based arepa stuffed with tender, seasoned pork, sweet caramelized plantains, and hearty black beans. Black beans provide a rich source of fiber and protein, supporting digestive health and sustained energy, while the plantains contribute natural sweetness and essential vitamins like potassium and vitamin A. The pork, while flavorful and protein-rich, can be high in saturated fat depending on preparation, so portion size is key for balanced nutrition. Arepas themselves are naturally gluten-free, making this dish an accessible option for individuals with gluten intolerance. Pairing this dish with fresh greens or avocado slices can elevate its nutritional profile, creating a beautiful balance of flavor and health.
