About Restaurant, Latino, Arroz con grandules (rice and pigeonpeas)
Arroz con gandules is the signature rice dish of Puerto Rico: rice cooked with pigeon peas and sofrito (a fragrant base of onion, garlic, peppers and herbs), often tinted golden with annatto. It's the centerpiece of holiday tables and Sunday dinners, and a beloved everyday comfort food across the island and beyond.
At about 182 calories per 100 grams, it's a touch richer than plain rice and beans because of the oil used to build the sofrito and toast the rice — fat runs around 5 grams per 100 grams. Carbohydrate is the headline at roughly 31 grams, with a modest 3.5 grams of protein and about 1.4 grams of fiber from the pigeon peas. Sodium is the number to watch, near 583 milligrams per 100 grams, since the sofrito and seasoning are generously salted.
This is satisfying, flavorful comfort food best enjoyed in a sensible portion alongside a lean protein and some vegetables to round out the plate. Going lighter on the cooking oil and added salt keeps it closer to a wholesome grain side than a heavy one.
