About Ham and cheese empanada
The Ham and Cheese Empanada is a savory pastry filled with diced ham and melted cheese, enveloped in a golden, flaky dough. Originating from the rich culinary traditions of Latin America, empanadas have become a universally loved snack due to their portability and satisfying flavors. This combination of protein-packed ham and calcium-rich cheese offers a delightful balance of taste and texture. The dough is traditionally made with flour, butter, and eggs, contributing to its crispy exterior. While delicious, the empanada's buttery pastry and processed meats can be high in saturated fat and sodium, making moderation key to enjoying it as part of a balanced diet. Perfect as a snack or a quick meal, Ham and Cheese Empanadas celebrate comfort food with a hearty, indulgent twist.
