About Restaurant, Latino, pupusas con frijoles (pupusas, bean)
The bean pupusa is the vegetarian sibling of El Salvador's famous stuffed masa cake: a thick disk of corn dough filled with seasoned mashed beans, sealed and griddled until golden. Served with curtido (tangy cabbage slaw) and salsa, it's hearty, handheld and a little lighter than the pork or cheese versions.
At about 229 calories per 100 grams, the bean filling makes this the most fiber-rich pupusa by far — a standout 5.8 grams per 100 grams from the beans and corn masa. Protein is moderate at around 5.6 grams, fat sits near 9 grams, and carbohydrate runs about 31 grams. Sodium is on the lower side for this group at around 305 milligrams per 100 grams, and because the filling is plant-based there's essentially no cholesterol.
Of the common pupusa fillings, the bean version is one of the most wholesome — high in fiber, lower in saturated fat than the cheese or meat options, and naturally satisfying. One or two with that fresh cabbage slaw makes a balanced meal, the curtido adding crunch and vegetables for almost no extra calories.
