Mexican Molletes Sandwich

July 27, 2020 By Editor

by Mariana Rebollo Moreira

The Mexican Molletes is a popular grilled sandwich served across Mexico. It is nutritious, simple, and fast to prepare with ingredients such as beans, cheese and vegetable salsa. If you love grilled cheese sandwiches, the Molletes is a similar type of Mexican version.

Mexican-Molletes

Mexicans eat Molletes for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Most Mexican restaurants serve Molletes and they have a place on their menu. 

Mashed beans is a good protein source and it is very common to use beans in the Mexican diet. Adding cheese and vegetable sauces make it tasty, nourishing and a healthy food choice. If you are Vegan, you can use Vegan Cheese substitutes that are available or an Avocado spread instead of regular cheese.
