Carnitas sandwiches in red sauce

This is a compensated campaign in collaboration with Nabisco and #WeAllGrow Latina Network

"I invite you to snack" is a popular phrase in Mexico, snacking is a traditional simple meal between lunch and dinner; it can be family or reunion type with friends.

In my house we have continued with the family tradition of snacking, when my children arrive hungry from school, they always ask for something to snack on, whether sweet or savory and I try to have something easy to enjoy with them while we wait for the arrival of dinner.

Sandwiches or snack boots with Ritz cookies

I also get to snack with my friends from time to time, each one carries some snack or snack, next time I will bring these snacks of carnitas en achiote, which were a success in my house, I prepared them inspired by the recipe of the Nabisco Pulled Pork-Sofrito RITZwhich .

I found the recipe on Nabisco's website while searching for easy-to-prepare snack ideas and found that they have recipes inspired by Latin dishes, made with Nabisco's favorite cookies: Oreo, Chips Ahoy!, RITZ Crackers and Honey Maid.

When I saw the recipe, I remembered that I had some pork carnitas that I had left over from the day before and also had Ritz cookies because we often eat them with everything; I set out to prepare it but with a Mexican twist; because this recipe of nabisco carries sofrito that is typical of some Latin American countries, but we do not usually use it in Mexico.

I hope you enjoy them, take them to some meeting that they come to celebrate Hispanic Month or Hispanic Heritage Month, they are very rich.
