Arepas are griddled corn cakes popular in the South America, and can be split and stuffed with your favorite fillings and enjoyed any time of day! Here, Chef Jose fills his Colombian-style sweet corn arepas with roasted butternut squash, sautéed kale and mushrooms, sweet plantains, seasoned black beans, and an egg. Topped with queso fresco and a drizzle of crema, these arepas are sweet and savory perfection!
