Tortilla Paraguaya
Tortilla Paraguaya is really more of a cheese omelette than an actual tortilla. The tortilla is made from eggs, flour, milk, and Paraguayan cheese. The batter is almost pancake-like in consistency but has more of a eggy spongy texture. They are eaten for breakfast and throughout the day as an accompaniment to meals and as a snack.
