Tortas de Carne are a flavorful Mexican sandwich featuring a savory, seasoned beef patty served on a soft bolillo roll. Often paired with fresh toppings like lettuce, tomato, avocado, and pickled jalapeños, it may also include refried beans or cheese for added richness. This traditional dish showcases bold spices typical of Mexican cuisine, such as cumin, garlic, and chili powder. Nutritionally, Tortas de Carne provide a source of protein from the beef and healthy fats from avocado. However, the sandwich can be high in sodium and calories, especially when loaded with cheese or fried components. Opting for lean ground beef, whole-grain bread, and fresh vegetables can make this dish a more balanced choice while preserving its authentic taste.
