    Recipe Description

    Locro de Zapallo is a hearty and traditional Peruvian stew known for its rich flavors and vibrant color, predominantly thanks to the zapallo, a type of squash common in South American cuisine. This vegan rendition of Locro de Zapallo maintains the dish’s cultural integrity while offering a plant-based alternative. By substituting meat with a variety of beans and utilizing vegetable broth, this recipe ensures a robust depth of flavor. The inclusion of traditional spices alongside the zapallo squash creates a comforting and nutritious meal that is not only emblematic of Peruvian cuisine but also accessible to those following a vegan lifestyle. Perfect for any season, this Locro de Zapallo is a celebration of Peruvian flavors, emphasizing the importance of vegetables and legumes in our diet.
