Guiso Costillas is a traditional Latin American stew, often celebrated in Mexican cuisine. The dish features tender pork ribs simmered in a rich tomato-based broth infused with garlic, onions, and spices such as cumin and chili powder. Often accompanied by potatoes, carrots, or other hearty vegetables, this rustic meal delivers bold flavors and comforting warmth. While the pork ribs provide protein essential for muscle health, the vegetables contribute fiber, vitamins, and minerals. However, its healthiness can vary depending on preparation—higher fat content in ribs and added oils or salts may increase calorie and sodium levels. Guiso Costillas is typically served with rice or warm tortillas, making it a filling option for family-style dining. By choosing leaner ribs and low-sodium ingredients, it can be adapted into a more balanced and heart-healthy version without sacrificing its rich, home-cooked flavor.
