About Pork arepa

Pork Arepa is a traditional dish from Venezuelan and Colombian cuisine, offering a flavorful combination of tender, seasoned pork served inside a warm, golden-brown cornmeal flatbread. The arepa, made from ground maize dough, is gluten-free and provides a good source of energy due to its complex carbohydrates. Pork is a rich source of protein and essential vitamins like B12, supporting muscle health and energy levels. While delicious, the nutritional profile depends on the preparation—some versions may include added fats or sugar, impacting calorie count or sodium levels. Balance can be achieved by pairing it with fresh vegetables, herbs, or avocado for added fiber, vitamins, and healthy fats. Pork Arepas are a hearty, satisfying dish that celebrates Latin American culinary traditions, making them a delicious option in moderation.
