¡Me ♥ las salteñas!



Salteñas are to Bolivia what empanadas are to Argentina, little pockets of joy that are simply delicious. You can find them on many street corners but only one salteñeria in Sucre offers a vegetarian version, and it´s a doozy. The salteñas at Salteñeria Flores have slightly sweet corn flour exterior that encloses a medley of sauteed veggies and locotus, a variety of pepper. Me gusta muchisimo. ¡Uno mas, por favor!

To get in on the action, here is a recipe for vegan salteñas. Bake up and let us know how it goes. ¡Buena suerte!

  1. Yum. That sounds awesome. Speaking of godsent foods, the breakfast taco is my little piece of heaven. It is one thing I will truly miss about Texas when I move elsewhere.
