Torta de Jamón is a popular Mexican sandwich made with a soft bolillo roll, filled with slices of savory ham, fresh tomato, avocado, onion, and jalapeño. Often garnished with mayonnaise or mustard, this simple yet flavorful dish is a staple in Mexican street food and household kitchens. Its origins trace back to Mexico’s embrace of European-style sandwiches, blending local ingredients for a unique twist. Nutritionally, it offers protein from the ham and healthy fats from the avocado, while the tomatoes and onion add vitamins and antioxidants. However, it can be high in sodium due to the ham and condiments, and calorie content varies depending on portion size and added extras. Opting for reduced-sodium ham and limiting creamy spreads can improve its health profile, making this delightful dish a more balanced choice for a quick and satisfying meal.
