Life is like an Arepa tastes like whatever you put in it. - Unknown
These days, my friend @tengolotodo told me it was about time I did a post for the delicious new community created by the Dude @mondoshawan, a place to share your sassy, yummy, and all kinds of sandwiches that you made yourself. Lizzie @lizelle joined in the demand. And I was telling Ed that I could have shared my arepas breakfast yesterday Sunday, but by the time I thought about it, the arepas had disappeared into our tummies.
But this morning, when I woke up thinking about eating my yogurt and fruit plate, I found that the husband and the cat, Grogu likes greek yogurt, had wiped out the yogurt. So instead of complaining. There it was, I had to start the week with an Arepin Sandwich, and so I had the excuse to share it with my friends from Silver Bloggers.
So I made a couple of arepas, which are made with corn flour. And they are typical of Venezuela and Colombia.
They are a kind of sandwich, but instead of bread with arepas. And you can fill them with anything you can think of.
Arepas can be baked, grilled, or even parboiled. At home, I like to make them thin and toasted, and I usually make them in a sandwich toaster to make them thin.
First of all, I buttered them. I had some smoked chorizo paste left over from yesterday's breakfast, so I spread it on. And filled them with fresh white cheese, which we call Guayanes, and a few slices of tomato.
I added a little pepper and a touch of olive oil, and voila! My Arepin Sandwich was ready.
What do you think, Super Ed, @tengolotodo? Would you take a bite?So it wasn't my regular Monday kind of breakfast, but who can complain?
Thank you for reading.

¡Qué buenas las arepas! En Canarias también se comen, por influencia de Venezuela a la que llaman la octava isla, están muy unidos, gente en ambos lados con mucho en común.
He comido arepas en España y bueno en los grandes supermercados es fácil conseguir Harina Pan que es el nombre de la harina que usamos para hacerlas ;) Feliz semana 🤗
Sí aquí ya hay de todo jeje pero en Canarias hay areperías, donde las familias van a cenar los fines de semana, en la península no lo he visto tanto. Pero en el supermercado, en Mercadona tienen tequeños congelados!
Los tequeños son lo máximo. Hace un par de años cuando visité a mi cuñada en Galicia vi en Ourense varios sitios que vendían tequeños como tapas y me sorprendió :)
Your sandwich sounds really delicious Eli, I've never tasted Arepas, am really keen to make them so I'll be running to YouTube 😅 AND Chorizo paste? Never had that either, but as I looove Chorizo, I'm sure it must be very very good!
So glad you made it here, the entire Silver Bloggers team have shared sandwiches, Fiona's done 2 already👍, great stuff! Hoping @mondoshawan recovers soon to share another whacky sandwich with us😃
Hi Lizzie! Sorry for the late reply. You would like the arepas. We usually make them with pre-cooked corn flour which is sold here in any supermarket but in the villages, you can sometimes get them made as they used to be in the past, made with fresh corn. Hopefully, you will be able to try them one day, I wouldn't be surprised if with so many Venezuelans having to leave the country, there is a place that sells Venezuelan food over there.
Let's see if this week things are more settled around here and I can make something new for the Sandwich community. Have a lovely week 🤗

oh that is perfect Super Eli, although I am intrigued by the chorizo paste!
Yes I would take a bite of you Super Eli...
Now I really do have to make my areping arepas post soon
You'd love the smoked chorizo paste, Super Ed! There is smoked chorizo and also black pudding. It's a paste to spread, so yummy! Both are delicious. It's a new product from a very well-known brand here of chorizos for grills.
Jeje, that sounds like a comment of the naughty charming rascal 😂😂😉
omfg!!!!
Where is the warning Super Eli
you win that is soooo funny
it was, wasn't it 😉
Well I love chorizo in all shapes and forms and of course black pudding mmmhmmm
You would love those spread of chorizo and black pudding. I'm sure, charming rascal 😉🌀
hehe charming rascal having his bite, I am sure I would Super Eli, you are making me drool!
Hahaha, makes me remember that i did a Kitty-Sandwich once... 😁
Oh god! you really did 😹😹
That looks awesome. It’s simple and I bet it’s totally delicious 😋 All the best food is simple it allows the flavors to shine 🤗💕💫
That's right, this is simple but delicious 😋 Happy week! 😊
Your sandwich makes me hungry. 😊 Chorizo looks tempting, never heard of that sauce. I'm sure it's very tasty! I didn't know about this community, I will join. 😊
I will be looking forward to your sandwiches creations, amiga 😋🤗
¡No antojes, Coqui! ¡Que hambre me dio! 😩
¡¡¡Jajaja!!! ¡Lo siento pero lo volveré a hacer 🤣🤣 Feliz semana!
🤣 ¡Excelente! ¡Que tengas una exitosa y bendecida semana!
😊🤗😄
I really wouldn't complain about having such a gastronomic marvel for breakfast either, my friend @coquicoin 💟
I love every ingredient you put in it. The guayanes cheese is one of my favorites 🤤 And Mr. cat eating yogurt is one of my favorites 😅
Hola, amiga!
It was so yummy. The cat and his taste for yogurt. What can I say? It makes me laugh 😹 But it doesn't make my pocket smile 🤣 Happy week!
@coquicoin that arepa looks very good and with cheese guayanes uff it is the best, without a doubt it was an outstanding breakfast.
It was yummy, Yesenia:) Thank you for stopping by!
Looks pretty darn nice to me !!! I've never heard of arepas before.

There must be a shop in Edinburgh that sells them, since Ed tried one near where he lives;)

cool - I'll have to keep an eye out for them !!
👍😄
Very appetizing bread, unfortunately we did not eat bread for breakfast😅,Maybe I should try to make it myself
Yep, you could try to make it. This one is made with corn flour instead of wheat.
Oh yaa, maybe it's a little hard to find cornstarch at my local market😅
Arepas are not actually made with cornstarch but with pre-cooked corn flour ;)
Okay ma'am, I'll try to figure it out
I would love to take a bite! It looks yummy.
And it was yummy, hehe ;) 😋

The arepa looks delicious!! I know there is a local here where you can eat arepas. After seeing yours, I need to taste one. 😅
You have to try them ;) Feliz semana! 🤗
Yay! 🤗

Awww what a very delicious Arepin sandwich. Corn flours when processed for foods are normally delicious to taste plus all the ingredients you put in there like olive oil, pepper, white cheese, and guayanes. This is really very delicious. How I wish I could take a bite of it, dear friend @coquicoin. I hope you are having a great time and take care.
It was yummy indeed ;)😋 Thank you for stopping by 😄

My pleasure, Dude 😄
