Empanada

An empanada is a folded pastry—baked or fried—filled with savory or sweet fillings such as seasoned meats, cheese, vegetables, or fruit. Commonly eaten as street food, snacks, appetizers, or part of a meal in Spain, Latin America, and beyond, people track empanadas because their nutritional content varies widely by filling, size, and cooking method, and logging can help monitor portions, macronutrients, and potential allergens.
