Directions
Pasteles,In Puerto Rico, these wrapped goodies are made in large quantities during the holidays, often with several family members sharing in the tasks of preparation. A food processor or blender makes the job easier. There are different versions. This one has a lot of ingredients but it is still very good. You can also stuff them with chicken instead of pork. (Time to make depends on how much help you can get!),Now she’s good….ty for sharing your recipes!!!!,This recipe was absolutly delicious. We enjoyed every second of making them as well as eating them. We shared them with family and friends who cannot wait until we make another batch. Thank you for the great addition to our recipe box. 🙂
