I’m definitely one of those people that believes that you don’t have to sacrifice taste or nutrition in order to eat healthy or delicious foods, regardless of your background. All that matters is capturing the essence of the dish. There will always be ways to substitute meat for other proteins, like vegetables that add texture. What Latino doesn’t love flan? And what if we add legumes? This is a spectacular recipe is perfect for any season. Serve as an appetizer or side dish, or ever as a main course with a fresh seasonal side salad.
