Homemade and wholesome meets quick and easy-to-prepare
Our Spinach & Cheese empanadas are simple, yet packed with flavor. We love how versatile they are –you can have them at room temperature on a hot summer day like we do in Argentina, serve them warm with a side for a full meal, or enjoy them as a appetizer with countless dips.
Inspired by Belén grandmother’s cannelloni filling, this empanada features spinach, ricotta cheese, garlic, black pepper, and a touch of nutmeg, all wrapped in a soft butter crust.
What can you have it with, you ask? Here are our top three pairing options:
- Serve it as an appetizer –it’s a great option to entertain your guests while dinner is getting ready.
- How about a tomato salad? Cut up a few slices of heirloom tomato and drizzle them with a red wine vinaigrette. The mild acidity will cut through the richness of the ricotta cheese to create the perfect balance. It also doesn’t hurt that they look so pretty together.
- Breakfast of champions –serve it with a sunny side up egg and orange juice. You’re welcome.
