Gorditas

Monday January 12, 2009
These Gorditas are one of my favorite lunches. It is a thick and hearty flat bread made with masa harina that is cooked until it puffs up, which enables you to slice it open and fill it up. Fillings are usually meat in a thick sauce, or just shredded or cubed meat and a little salsa. You can get creative with your fillings by trying seafood versions or fruit versions. However you make your gordita, you will enjoy the chewy texture of this Mexican flatbread.
