Back here with a new recipe. Some of you may have already tried it, but for me it's new. As you know, I'm on a healthy diet and looking for ways to stick to it, within my means.
A while ago, I saw this combination and said to myself, I have to try it. So when I saw that I had the ingredients, I set out to make some delicious spinach arepas.
The ingredients I used were as follows:
The first thing I did was blend my spinach. Once it was thoroughly washed, I used four leaves with a little water, put it in the blender, and this is how it turned out.馃憞
Next, in a bowl, add approximately one cup of oatmeal, and then add the spinach on top.
Now, with a spoon, I start stirring everything together. As you can see, I then had to use my hands to start kneading, shaping our dough. Given the quantities I used, I ended up with this little bit. To be honest, I didn't have any more spinach to make it go further, but it was enough for two small arepas.
As you can see, my dough is ready, I made my arepas, and I was really surprised by the texture. They are very compact, just like a normal corn arepa.
In one of the recipes I saw, the girl recommended letting it rest for a while so that the dough would harden. I think in her case, it was because she added a lot of spinach, which, as you can see, makes it very liquid. And this flour is different; the more liquid you add, the more watery it becomes, so you have to be careful about that.
Now all that's left is to cook them. In a pan greased with a little oil, place the arepas over low heat and wait for them to brown on one side, then the other. They just need to harden a little to be ready.
So there you have it, our delicious spinach arepas, nutritious and undoubtedly easy to prepare, don't you think? 馃槏馃憞
This was my lunch: my delicious arepas with chicken stew and a lettuce and tomato salad. What do you think?
I really liked it, especially with this combination of my arepas. It was the first time I tried them and made them, and I loved them. I hope next time I have more spinach so I can make more, hehehe. 馃構
Thank you for reading, I hope you like this recipe, and if you haven't tried it yet, I encourage you to give it a go.
This is my fourth day of the challenge with

De vuelta por aqu铆, con una nueva receta, quiz谩s algunos ya lo han probado, para m铆 esto es nuevo, como saben, ando con mi dieta saludable, buscando la forma de cumplirla, dentro de lo que este a mi alcance.
Hace un tiempo, hab铆a visto esta combinaci贸n, y me dije, tengo que probarlo, as铆 que cuando vi que ten铆a los ingredientes, me dispuse a realizar, les hablo de unas ricas arepas de espinacas.
Los ingredientes que utilice, fueron los siguientes:
Lo primero que hice fue licuar mi espinaca, una vez bien lavada, use 4 hojitas, con un poquito de agua, la met铆 en la licuadora, y as铆 nos queda.馃憞
Seguidamente, en un bowl, agregue mi harina de avena, aproximadamente, una taza, y encima a帽ado la espinaca.
Ahora con una cuchara empiezo a revolverlo todo, como ven, tuve que despu茅s con las manos, empezar amasar, d谩ndole forma a nuestra masa, por las cantidades que use, me sali贸, este poquito; la verdad no ten铆a m谩s espinaca, para que me rindiera, sin embargo, me alcanzo, para dos peque帽as arepas.
Como ven, lista mi masa, arm茅 mis arepas, la verdad me sorprendi贸 mucho la contextura, quedan muy bien compactadas, como toda una arepa normal de ma铆z.
En una de las recetas que vi, la chica recomend贸 dejarlo reposar un poco, para que la masa se endureciera, creo que en el caso de ella, fue que le agrego mucha espinaca, como ver谩n eso queda muy liquido, y de por si, esta harina es diferente, mientras mas liquido, mas aguada queda, hay que estar pendiente de eso.
Ya solo me queda cocinarlas, en un sart茅n engrasado con algo de aceite, colocamos nuestras arepas, a baja llama, esperamos se doren de un lado, luego del otro, era cuesti贸n de que se endurezcan un poco, para estar listas.
Quedando as铆, nuestras ricas arepas de espinacas, nutritivas, y sin duda f谩ciles de preparar, no creen.馃槏馃憞
Este fue mi almuerzo, mis ricas arepas, con pollo guisado, y una ensalada de lechuga con tomate, 驴Qu茅 les parece?馃構
A m铆 me gusto mucho, sobre todo con esta combinaci贸n de mis arepas, primera vez que las pruebo y hago, quede encantada, espero para la pr贸xima, tener m谩s espinaca, para que me salgan m谩s jejeje
Gracias por leerme, espero les guste esta receta, y si no la han probado, se animen a hacerla.
Este es mi #4 d铆a del reto junto con
