Torta Hawaiana is a vibrant Mexican sandwich that blends savory and sweet flavors. This popular dish typically features a soft telera or bolillo roll filled with ham, melted cheese, pineapple slices, avocado, jalapeños, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise. Originating from Mexico's love for inventive tortas, the Hawaiana gets its name from the tropical sweetness of pineapple, reminiscent of Hawaiian-inspired dishes. Its combination of protein from the ham and cheese, healthy fats from avocado, and vitamins from fresh vegetables makes it a satisfying meal option. However, it can also be high in sodium from processed meats and cheese, and the mayonnaise adds extra fat. For a healthier version, consider using whole-grain bread, leaner protein options such as turkey, and light mayo or avocado spread. The Torta Hawaiana strikes a balance between indulgence and fresh ingredients, making it a delicious choice in Mexican casual cuisine.
