- Homemade Flour Tortillas: If you’re not up for making your tortillas yourself, that’s fine. Just buy the fluffiest and thickest you can find. The ready to cook tortillas from the grocery store work well.
- Refried Beans: You can use any refried beans, but most authentic recipes call for refried red kidney beans. No matter the beans you choose, be sure they are warm.
- Cotija Cheese: You can use queso fresco or queso duro as substitutes
- Baleadas Hondureñas can be served with avocado, red onions, eggs, seasoned beef, chicken or sausage.
- Be sure your beans are warm before spreading them. Baleadas should be served warm.
- Using homemade tortillas truly does take this recipe to a whole new level. Give it a try!
