Arepas

Arepas are very common here in Colombia.  They are thick tortillas, often filled with something like cheese or meat, and made from corn flour.  They are quite similar to Salvadoran pupusas.  You can find them everywhere on the street and in the stores, but of course they are best when freshly homemade.  And I prefer them grilled like in the pictures below.  We found these arepas on our way back from a hike, and they were amazing!
