Hello Everyone, I'm back today with another recipe video! I know that there's a debate on what to call these, but I grew up calling them empanadas and they were a huge part of my childhood, to the point where I didn't eat them for years because I got so sick of them as a teenager lol I still love them, and regardless of what you call them, one thing we can agree on is how delicious these are. This is just one of many versions that I have up my sleeve, so I hope you enjoy it and there is more to come ;)

2 packs of frozen empanada

✿Add olive oil and impossible meat to a pan, over medium heat. Begin to break up the impossible meat, and brown. Once brown, add your sofrito, onion, vegetable bouillon, and olives. Stir, and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes.

About Me:

Hi! My name is Alex and I am a Latinx woman and my pronouns are She/Her. I am originally from Bronx, NY but am currently residing in Pennsylvania, but I'm always going to be a Bronx girl at heart. I still travel a lot between both places so there will definitely be plenty of NYC content as well as exploring different states/areas that interest me!

Plant-based Puerto Rican is a concept that I created in order to keep my culture alive, while maintaining a plant-based diet. I strongly believe that just because you choose to eat a plant-based diet does not mean you need to lose your culture along with it. I am very passionate about transforming traditional dishes that I grew up with and creating Veg Friendly versions of them, and I look forward to showcasing that on my Channel.

I hope you enjoy my content and feel free to subscribe and join this journey with me :)
