Some of what you'll find inside

Arepas con Queso

Arepas are round corn cakes that can be served with a variety of fillings depending on which country you’re in. These Colombian-style arepas are cooked on the stovetop and then stuffed with gouda cheese that melts and gets gooey after a few minutes in the oven.

Ensalada de Frutas

This fruit salad is the solution to hot summer days. After chopping the fruit, add orange juice, water, and ice to the fruit mixture; stir gently to combine; and serve with plenty of juice spooned on top of each portion—the juicier the better with this refreshing fruit salad!

Panqueques con Dulce de Leche

A distant cousin to French crepes, these panqueques are just as delicious and a bit more forgiving—make them as thick or as thin as you like, with a lot of browning. After cooking the panqueques, fill them with luscious, sweet dulce de leche.

Empanadas de Pollo

Empanadas are a delicious labor of love. To make these empanadas de pollo simpler to prepare, this version uses store-bought hojaldradas-style empanada dough rounds and rotisserie chicken.
