About Toluca enchilada
Toluca Enchilada is a vibrant dish rooted in Mexican cuisine, celebrated for its rich flavors and satisfying textures. Traditionally, it features corn tortillas filled with a savory mix, often including chorizo sourced from Toluca, a region renowned for its specialty sausages. The filling is complemented by a flavorful sauce made with dried chilies and tomatoes, then baked or lightly sautéed. Accompaniments may include fresh lettuce, cheese, onion, and a drizzle of crema. Nutritionally, the dish offers a good source of protein and essential vitamins from its chili-infused sauce, such as vitamin C. However, chorizo’s high fat and sodium content, combined with cheese and crema, can make it calorie-dense. Health-conscious variations might use leaner meat or plant-based alternatives, plus yogurt instead of crema. This indulgent dish balances tradition and taste, embodying the bold essence of Mexican culinary heritage.
