About Two spinach tamales
Two Spinach Tamales are a delicious twist on the traditional Mexican dish, blending vibrant flavors with wholesome ingredients. Made from masa (a dough from ground corn) and filled with tender spinach, garlic, onions, and a touch of cheese or herbs, these tamales are steamed in corn husks to preserve their moisture and distinct flavor. Spinach, a nutrient-dense leafy green, provides a wealth of vitamins A, C, and K, along with antioxidants and dietary fiber. Masa contributes energy-rich carbohydrates and is naturally gluten-free. While low in fat, the addition of cheese may slightly increase sodium and fat content, depending on the type used. These tamales are a satisfying option for vegetarians and can be paired with salsa or avocado for added nutrients. Originating from Mexico, tamales reflect the rich cultural heritage of Latin American cuisine while offering a versatile and health-conscious meal choice.
