About Queso mixto

Queso Mixto is a flavorful cheese blend typically made from a mix of cow’s, goat’s, and sometimes sheep’s milk. Known for its creamy texture and mild, slightly tangy flavor, it is a staple in many Latin American cuisines, frequently used in dishes like quesadillas, enchiladas, or as a topping for baked goods. Nutritionally, Queso Mixto is a rich source of protein and calcium, which support muscle function and bone health. It also provides essential vitamins such as B12 and riboflavin. However, like many cheeses, it can be high in saturated fat and sodium, making portion control important for those monitoring heart health or salt intake. For a balanced approach, enjoy Queso Mixto as part of a meal rich in vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Its versatility and distinct taste make it both a delicious and cultural culinary gem.
