About Torta de asada

Torta de Asada is a popular Mexican sandwich that combines bold flavors with hearty ingredients. It features seasoned and grilled steak served on a soft bolillo or telera roll, often toasted for added texture. Typical toppings include avocado slices, refried beans, shredded lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños, with condiments such as mayonnaise or salsa enhancing its rich taste. Originating from Mexican street food culture, this dish is a satisfying blend of protein, fiber, and essential nutrients from fresh vegetables. The steak provides a good source of iron and protein, while avocado contributes healthy fats. However, depending on preparation, it can be high in calories, sodium, and saturated fats, especially if excessive mayonnaise or cheese is added. For a healthier version, opt for lean cuts of beef and limit heavy sauces. It's a flavorful and filling meal that showcases the vibrant cuisine of Mexico.
