About Veggie and cheese pupusa
The Veggie and Cheese Pupusa is a traditional Salvadoran dish made from a thick, handmade corn tortilla filled with a blend of melted cheese and seasoned vegetables like spinach, zucchini, or beans. This comforting delicacy is naturally gluten-free, as it’s crafted from masa harina, a finely ground corn flour. Packed with fiber and nutrients from the vegetables, it offers a plant-based source of energy, while the cheese adds protein and calcium. However, the dish can be calorie-dense depending on the portion and amount of cheese used, so moderation is key for those watching their fat intake. Typically served with curtido (a tangy cabbage slaw) and salsa, it balances rich flavors with fresh, zesty accompaniments. A satisfying fusion of taste and tradition, the Veggie and Cheese Pupusa is both a flavorful treat and a nutritious option when enjoyed as part of a well-rounded meal.
